Managing your Objective Statement Collections

Admin users of Insight can add, edit, re-order and archive objective statements.

Trust users can manage Objectives at Trust level, to ensure consistency across schools. The process is the same as at school level, just begin on the Trust (rather than school) Home page. Schools are still able to add additional Objective sets at school level.

Choose Admin from the Account menu in the top right, then Objectives from the admin page to get started.

A set of objectives is known as a Collection. Any existing collections are listed in the Name column. The Source column describes the owner of each collection.

For example, Trust will appear where the collection is added, and owned, by the Trust. Schools within the Trust are not able to make changes to the collection. These have to be made at Trust level.

Similarly, the source could be a commercial provider, or the DfE. The supplier name will be displayed in this case.

Changing the order of Objective collections

Objective collections appear, in the list, in the order they're added by default. However, this is not likely to be the preferred order, particularly for teachers choosing them from menus to add assessments.

To change the order, use the drag arrow icons to click and drag collections into the desired order.

This will then be reflected elsewhere in Insight, such as in the main Objectives assessment page

If any collections are set to appear in sub-menus, the order will also be reflected here.

If a padlock icon appears instead of the arrows, this indicates that you are viewing the manage objectives page as a school with objective collections managed at Trust level. Trust objective collections may only be reordered at Trust level.
Archiving or deleting Objective collections

If you no longer want to use any collections in your school or Trust, it is possible to archive or delete them. Both will have the effect of removing the collection from availability outside of Admin with these key differences:

Archive - The collection(s) will be removed from access outside of Admin and will move to the Archived Collections list. Archived collections may be restored, or unarchived. Doing so makes them available again, with all the previously entered data.

Delete - The collection(s) will be removed from access outside of Admin and will be completely deleted. To protect your data, only objective collections with no existing data may be deleted. Contact support if you're unable to delete a collection.

To Archive, Delete or Unarchive click the box next to the collections to select them.

The available buttons will then appear at the top. Simply click the one you want.

You'll be given any important information. For example, if you select multiple collections and choose Delete, you'll be informed if not all may be deleted.

Exporting Objective collections

It may be useful to export a collection as an Excel file. Select the collection(s) you want to export, then click the Export button.
