Please be aware ... 

It is also possible to assess the pupils by left mouse clicking in the Total column and either typing or choosing the number of achieved statements from the drop down list. Please be aware that using this option to assess the children will assume the total number of points that you select have been achieved in the current term, and will remove the term information of any previously recorded points, including the child's Entry Level Assessment information. A warning message will be given and clicking OK will result in the scenario above. Click Cancel to close the message box without making any changes to the data.

 

You will notice in the drop down list there is also an entry for 0, N or A

Choosing 0 = assessed as having achieved zero points

Choosing N = not assessed

Choosing A = denotes that you are assessing the child using an Alternative Assessment
