Why does AS Tracking work?
AS Tracking is based on pioneering science into 'pupil steering biases'. Pupils' steering biases are assessed twice or three times per year using AS Tracking. Research conducted by STEER over 15 years, started at Oxford University, shows that this steering data predicts their mental health risks and their social competencies. READ OUR EVIDENCE BASE

During COVID AS Tracking safeguarded 1,000s of pupils in lockdown at home

During lockdown the STEER 'supporting vulnerable pupils' tool has been an absolute GAME CHANGER. The ability to look across a range of biases and pick out targeted comments has been hugely positive in our remote student interactions'

The AS tracking profile has given me such insight into how my student's mind might be working. During lockdown, the strategies that I'm trying with him seem to be working. From his mum’s email, we have one happy boy at home right.
