How the Tracker works
School leaver information is automatically taken from school MIS systems to understand who needs to be tracked. Sentinel’s technology then pools multiple data streams to provide a holistic, up-to-date view of an individual’s journey beyond school and highlighting those cases where intervention is required. Information is fed from sources encompassing the following areas:
Education and training – showing applications, enrolments, non-starters, drop-outs, transfers, leavers and those on a gap year.
Employment - including those going into the armed forces or taking temporary positions.
Health, legal and care-related - covering long and short-term care issues, SEND needs, pregnancies or youth offending.
All incoming data is automatically checked for completeness and accuracy with exception reports provided for failed records. The Tracker then matches all data to provide a complete view of every young person.
On-line portal screens can collate information school careers officers may wish to add. This is automatically added to the young person’s record.
The solution then provides ongoing case management to track and manage the interactions with the young person as well as fulfilling all NCCIS submissions and reporting obligations to the DfE.
