What SBA software should do
School Based Assessment (SBA) is the continuous-assessment backbone of Ghana's curriculum: class exercises, tests and project work recorded across the term, combined with end-of-term exams to produce each pupil's result. Doing this by hand means columns of marks, repeated multiplication for the scaling, and careful ranking for positions, every step a chance for an arithmetic slip.
Good SBA software removes that manual load. It should let teachers record scores quickly, apply your school's SBA weighting automatically, grade to the GES bands without a lookup table, and roll everything up into the terminal report, all without retyping a single number.
How IntuitiveSBA handles School Based Assessment
Teachers photograph a marked class sheet and IntuitiveSBA reads the scores in, no row-by-row typing. Continuous assessment and exam marks land on one combined sheet, so there is a single place to review the term's work.
- SBA scaling and weighting applied automatically (the class/exam split your school uses)
- GES grading bands, aggregates and class positions computed for every pupil
- Scores typed into a grid that saves as you go, or read from a photo of the filled sheet
- Your school's name, logo, colours and motto on every report card
- Report links sent to parents by SMS the same day
Less arithmetic, fewer mistakes
Because the scaling and grading run the same way every time, positions and aggregates come out consistent across every class, no second-guessing the maths, no late nights re-checking totals. Headteachers can see which scores are still missing before report day, instead of finding out at the printer.
