Overview of Baseline Assessment Score Reports

Our baseline assessment score reports let you know how your students performed in each module (Vocabulary, Mathematics and Non-Verbal (Patterns)) of the Yellis baseline assessment. These reports help you see each student’s strengths and where they may need more support. This is a good starting point to help you to support them to do their best in all subjects.
