How can I change the Grade Boundaries on my Tracker to a particular exam series set?
Open up the tracker that you want to adjust the boundaries for. Click on Tools and go to the Grade Boundaries option as shown in the GIF below.
Click on Change, and from the new window that pops up you'll be able to change the grade boundaries to a different exam series. Please do get in touch using the Helpcentre icon if you cannot access the boundary series you require.
How can I adjust the challenge level of my Tracker's Grade Boundaries?
The Adjust Grade Boundaries section (pictured below) will allow you to shift the applied Grade Boundaries in 1% increments each way, ranging from -10% to 10%.
Click on Save & Close and your students' grades will be recalculated based on the grade boundaries you've just chosen.
Please be aware that changing grade boundaries in this way will apply to your whole tracker and not an individual test/unit. However, your row data will be unaffected when you change grade boundaries.
How can I change Grade Boundaries for a single test only?
You can shift the grade boundaries of a single test that has been added to your tracker as an Customised Assessment by either ±5% or ±10%. For more guidance, see this article:
At the current time, we are unable to have specific grade boundaries from different exam series applied to individual papers.
If you need any set grade boundaries added to your tracker, just get in touch with us directly over the Helpdesk. You can do this using the little blue button on the bottom right corner of your screen.
📖 Pupil Progress Tip
If the student grades awarded on the Tracker look slightly skewed, it is worth double-checking the Grade Boundary section, to see if a shift has been put in place.
