Publishing Reports

Once reports have passed through the Review Stage and are ready to be published, you will want to make them visible to the caregivers of your school community. Only staff members with Hero administration rights have the ability to publish reports.

Follow these simple steps to publish student reports in Hero. 

PUBLISH REPORTS

1. Navigate to the Reporting hub on the left of your screen

   

2. Locate the class or group you are ready to publish reports for by searching or browsing in the groups menu. Click on your class or group.

   If you want to publish reports for the whole school at once, select the Current Students Auto group.

   

3. This takes you to the reporting dashboard for the class or group which provides a clear overview of your progress, showing for each active template:
   • How many reports are still to be written
   • How many reports are in progress
   • How many reports are ready for review (and ready for principal or leadership comment)
   • How many reports are ready to publish
   • How many reports are already published

4. Scroll to the report you are publishing and click Publish reports 

   

5. You are able to publish for individuals, multiple students, or the whole class.
   • To select an individual student: Click the checkbox beside the student's name.
   • To select more than one student: Click multiple boxes for the specific students you wish to include.
   • To select the whole class: Click the Select all box at the top of the list.

Once you have made your selection, click the publish button at the bottom. This will confirm the number of reports you are publishing.
