File Tag Administration

This feature will allow you to define custom tags that schools can select when submitting standalone files to the LA. Making it quicker and easier for you to maintain a key organisational element of this module.

Note: We recommend all LAs use File Requests over Standalone files. File Requests can significantly streamline data collection, allowing your LA to customise and control the types of files you receive.

Currently, we display a default list of tags inside Perspective Lite for a school to select when returning a file to you, these are:

  • Census
  • EYFSP
  • KS1
  • KS2
  • KS4
  • MTC
  • Phonics
  • Other

To add a new tag click New Tag, give your tag a name and click Add Tag. To edit an existing tag click Edit alongside it, or click the bin icon to delete the tag completely. Deleting a tag means schools can no longer use it, however any file already sent with that tag will remain in the system and will display the tag.

Our Support Team historically added any custom tags your LA required, but with this new tag administration dashboard, you'll be able to quickly and easily create and update those yourself. Saving you from needing to contact our Support Team every time!
