    Track reporting progress across your school with the Analytics dashboard, Comment Progress report, and Review Pack progress report.

    What the Analytics Section Is For

    Analytics gives school administrators a bird's-eye view of where every teacher is up to in the reporting cycle. You can see how many comments have been started, how many are ready for review, where review packs are stalled, and which classes are complete, all in one place.

    This is the page to open when you want to answer questions like:

    • "How are we tracking for the end of term?"
    • "Which teachers haven't started yet?"
    • "Which review packs need a nudge?"
    • "Are reviewers keeping up with their packs?"

    Who Can See It

    Analytics is only available to school administrators. If you open /analytics as a teacher or reviewer, ReportRocket sends you back to the dashboard.

    Opening Analytics

    Click Analytics in the sidebar. The Analytics section has three tabs:

    1. Overview: high-level snapshot
    2. Comment Progress: class-by-class report on comment generation
    3. Review Packs: pack-by-pack report on the review workflow

    A year and semester selector sits at the top of every Analytics page. Use these to switch between current and prior reporting periods.

    Overview

    The Overview is the landing page when you click Analytics.

    Donut Chart and Completion Percentage

    A donut chart in the top left shows the split of all student reports across five statuses. The large percentage in the middle is the share of students with a Complete report.

    Stat Cards

    Six stat cards sit beside the donut, one per status plus a total:

    CardMeaning
    Total StudentsAll students across all classes in the selected year and semester
    Not StartedNo comment has been generated yet
    DraftA comment exists but the teacher is still editing
    Ready for ReviewTeacher has marked the comment ready but it is not yet in a review pack
    In ReviewComment is sitting in a review pack
    CompleteComment has been approved

    Below the chart are two link cards that jump you straight into the Comment Progress and Review Packs reports.

    Comment Progress

    The Comment Progress page shows the comment generation status for every class in your school.

    What You See

    A table with one row per class, including:

    • Class name and year level
    • Teacher
    • Total students
    • A progress bar showing the split of statuses for that class
    • Status counts for Not Started, Draft, Ready, In Review, Complete

    Click any row to expand it and see student-by-student detail.

    Quick Filters

    Quick filter buttons sit above the table for the most common follow-up scenarios:

    • Not Started: classes where nobody has generated a comment yet
    • Not Sent for Review: classes where every comment is still in draft
    • Awaiting Review Pack: classes with comments marked ready but not yet packed
    • Reviewer Overdue: classes with comments stuck in review
    • Complete: classes where every student has an approved report

    Filters and Sorting

    Use the year level, teacher, and class filters above the table to narrow the view. Click any column header to sort.

    Review Packs

    The Review Packs page shows the status of every review pack in your school.

    What You See

    A table with one row per pack, including:

    • Pack title, teacher, reviewer
    • A Currently With column showing whether the pack is with the teacher, the reviewer, or done
    • Pack status badge (Draft, In Review, Changes Needed, Approved, Published)
    • Progress, due date, and the date the reviewer last opened the pack

    Click any row to expand it and see the classes and students inside the pack.

    Quick Filters

    Quick filter buttons help you find packs that need attention:

    • No Reviewer: packs that nobody has been assigned to
    • Not Opened: reviewer is assigned but has not opened the pack
    • Overdue: past the due date and not yet approved
    • Stalled: opened 5 or more days ago with reviews still outstanding
    • Complete: every report in the pack has been approved

    Filters and Sorting

    Filter by teacher, reviewer, year level, or class. Click any column header to sort.

    How to Read the Data

    The numbers update automatically as teachers generate comments, mark them ready, send packs, and reviewers do their work. You do not need to refresh.

    If a number looks wrong, check the year and semester selector at the top. Analytics defaults to the current school year and semester based on today's date, but you can switch back to a prior period at any time.

    Tips

    • Check Analytics weekly during report season. A quick scan of the quick filters surfaces classes and packs that need a chase.
    • Use the year level filter to focus on the team that is currently writing reports if your school staggers year groups.
    • Open Review Packs first when nothing is moving. Stalled packs are the most common bottleneck.
