Creating Review Packs

What is a Review Pack?

A Review Pack bundles multiple student reports together and sends them to a colleague for feedback. This streamlines the peer review process that many schools require.

Creating a Review Pack

1. Prepare Your Reports

Before creating a pack, ensure the reports you want reviewed are:

• Generated (have comments)
• Ready for feedback
• Marked appropriately

2. Navigate to Review Packs

Click Review Packs in the sidebar.

3. Click "Create Pack"

You'll see a dialog with options:

• Pack name – e.g., "Term 2 Week 8 Reports" or "3B English Reports"
• Select reports – Choose which student reports to include
• Assign reviewer – Select a colleague from your review team

4. Send for Review

Click "Send for Review" to notify your colleague.

Pack Statuses

Each pack also tracks its review round (e.g. "Round 1", "Round 2") showing how many review cycles it has been through.

Managing Your Packs

1. Click "Recall Pack"
2. Enter a reason
3. Wait for reviewer to release it (or force recall if urgent)

Setting Up Your Review Team

Before creating packs, you need colleagues available as reviewers. There are two ways this works:

• School users: Any member of your school can be selected as a reviewer by default. If your admin has enabled Restrict Reviewers, only members with the Reviewer or Admin role will appear in the reviewer dropdown.
• Individual users: Add colleagues to your review team in Settings > Review Team by entering their email address. They'll appear as reviewer options when you create a pack.
