Student Performance Analytics
OneView — student performance intelligence for independent and Catholic schools.
Every Australian independent and Catholic school generates significant student performance data. Most of it sits in disconnected systems — the student information system, the LMS, assessment platforms, and spreadsheets teachers maintain themselves. OneView by Antares Solutions brings it together in one place, built on Microsoft Fabric and Power BI, giving every stakeholder the right view at the right level — from whole-school cohort down to individual student.
The Challenge
You’re not short of data. Your student information system captures attendance, enrolment, and academic results. Your LMS records assignment submissions and grades. Your assessment platform holds diagnostic and summative data going back years. The problem is that none of it talks to the rest — and getting a complete picture of a student, a class, or a year group means pulling reports from three or four systems and building a spreadsheet.
Teachers do this every week. They spend time they don’t have cross-referencing results, tracking down incomplete assessments, and trying to identify which students need attention before it becomes a welfare conversation. And they do it in isolation — without a consistent view across the department or the year group.
Heads of Department and Coordinators are in a harder position. The question — “how is Year 10 Science tracking against expected outcomes?” — sounds simple. In practice, answering it means asking someone to build a report that pulls from at least two systems, applies the right filters, and lands in an inbox days later. By the time the picture arrives, the moment for early intervention has usually passed.
Principals face the same friction at a whole-school level. The data to make good strategic decisions exists somewhere in your systems. The question is whether anyone in your school can actually access it, read it, and act on it — without a week of manual work first.
What OneView Does
OneView connects your existing systems into a single analytics layer, then surfaces the right view for each person who needs it. No new data entry. No migration. Your existing data, made usable.
Principals see attendance trends, academic performance by year group and subject area, and cohort patterns in a live dashboard. Not a spreadsheet export produced at end of term — a view that updates with your source data.
Heads of Department can drill into a year group or subject cohort to see where students are tracking against expected outcomes. Identify patterns — is this a teaching issue, a cohort issue, or a handful of students who need support — before the end-of-term crunch.
Teachers see their own class data in one place: assessment results, attendance correlation, assignment completion rates, and historical trend lines. The information that currently requires three systems and a spreadsheet, consolidated into a single view.
Any teacher can pull up a complete picture of a single student — academic results across all subjects, attendance history, assessment trends over time. The kind of view that previously only emerged at a formal case management meeting, available instantly.
Parents receive a meaningful view of their child’s progress — not just raw marks, but trend lines and context relative to expected outcomes and their own history. Parent-teacher interviews become more substantive when parents arrive having already seen the data.
OneView reads from the platforms your school already runs — Synergetic, Compass, Sentral, Canvas, Schoolbox, and others. No changes to your source systems. No data migration. No new workflows for teachers to adopt.
Who It’s For
OneView is not one dashboard for everyone. Each stakeholder — from Principal to classroom teacher to parent — gets a view calibrated to what they actually need, with access controls that ensure they see only what they should.
Questions land on your desk every week that someone has to build a spreadsheet to answer. OneView gives you a live view of whole-school attendance, academic performance by year group and subject area, and cohort trends over time — without waiting for a report to be prepared.
Heads of Department consistently tell us the same thing: by the time they find out a cohort is struggling, the window for meaningful intervention has already closed. OneView gives you a subject-level cohort view updated from your source systems — so you see the pattern as it forms, not after the fact.
The average teacher touches at least three systems to build a complete picture of a student. That’s time spent in systems instead of in front of students. OneView removes that friction. Your class assessment results, attendance correlation, assignment completion, and historical trends are in a single view — and when you’re writing reports, you already have the data.
A single mark on an assessment tells a parent very little. OneView gives parents a view of their child’s performance in context — trend lines across subjects, relative to their own history and to expected outcomes. Parents arrive at interviews having already seen the data, which means the conversation can move straight to what matters.
Platform
OneView is built on Microsoft Fabric — Microsoft’s unified data and analytics platform — with Power BI as the visualisation layer. It runs entirely within your school’s Microsoft Azure tenancy. No third-party platform holding student records. No SaaS subscription sitting outside your security boundary. Full compliance with Australian student data privacy requirements — by architecture, not by policy statement.
The data integration and analytics engine that connects your school’s existing systems — student information, LMS, assessment platforms — into a single, governed data model. All data processing stays within your tenancy.
The visualisation and reporting layer — purpose-built for the kind of multi-level, role-based dashboards OneView requires. Familiar to your IT team. Powerful enough for complex cohort analysis and drill-through to individual student data.
Every component of OneView runs inside your school’s Azure tenancy. Student data never leaves your environment. Your existing data governance and security policies apply. GDPR and Privacy Act compliance is inherited, not retrofitted.
Why Antares
Most schools that come to us have tried to solve this before — with a consultant who built a Power BI report that nobody uses, or a vendor whose platform required a full data migration. Here’s how we approach it differently.
Every implementation starts with a fixed-fee discovery and data mapping engagement. You understand the full scope, the integrations required, and the expected outcome — before you commit to the build. No surprises when the invoice lands.
We’ve built analytics and AI solutions for Haileybury College, Newington College, UNSW, and CQUniversity. We understand the constraints — ACSSO compliance, parent portal integrations, reporting season demands, and the reality that your IT team is probably stretched. We don’t arrive and learn on your budget.
We’ve seen what happens when a vendor requires a full data migration as a precondition. The project stalls, the budget blows out, and staff are managing two systems in parallel for six months. OneView is designed around the principle that your source systems don’t change — we read from them.
Most OneView implementations are live within eight to ten weeks of the build commencing. The discovery engagement comes first, so you know the precise timeline before work starts. Schools that have tried to build this capability themselves typically spend six to twelve months — and most don’t reach production.
An ongoing managed service means we’re still actively involved after the dashboards go live — adding new data connections, updating views for curriculum changes, tuning performance, and bringing new capabilities as Microsoft releases them. Your OneView doesn’t freeze at the version we delivered on day one.
If your school’s data isn’t in a state where OneView can deliver meaningful results, we’ll tell you that in the discovery engagement — and we’ll tell you what needs to happen first. A project that’s set up to fail doesn’t help anyone.
How We Work
We map your existing systems, confirm data availability, and understand your reporting priorities — students, subjects, year groups, and what each stakeholder role actually needs. Delivered as a fixed-fee engagement so you know the cost before the build starts.
We build the secure connections between your student information and learning management systems and Microsoft Fabric. No changes to your source systems. No data migration. Your IT team retains full visibility of what’s being read and how.
We configure OneView for your school’s specific structure — year groups, subject hierarchies, reporting frameworks, and the role-based access model that determines who sees what. Dashboard design is validated with a representative group of teachers and administrators as we build.
A live pilot with a small cohort of teachers and leaders. We refine views based on real use, resolve any data quality issues surfaced during the pilot, and deliver training for broader rollout. Most schools go fully live within term one of the engagement.
Frequently Asked Questions
OneView connects to the student information and learning management systems most commonly used in Australian independent and Catholic schools — including Synergetic, Compass, and Sentral, as well as learning management systems such as Canvas and Schoolbox. The integrations are built on Microsoft Fabric data pipelines. Your source systems don’t change, and no student data is moved or migrated — OneView reads from what you already run.
No. OneView is deployed entirely inside your school’s Microsoft Azure tenancy. Student data is processed through Microsoft Fabric and visualised in Power BI — all within your own environment. No student records are held on a shared third-party platform. This design is compliant with Australian student data privacy requirements by architecture — your governance and security policies apply to OneView in exactly the same way they apply to everything else running in your tenancy.
Power BI is the visualisation layer — OneView is the complete solution, and the complexity is not in the charts. Connecting Synergetic or Compass to a Fabric data pipeline, building a data model that handles year groups, subjects, cohorts, and individual student profiles correctly, then configuring role-based views that give each stakeholder the right level of detail — that is the hard part. Schools that build this themselves typically spend six to twelve months and significant internal IT resource. Most don’t reach a state that teachers actually use. OneView deploys in eight to ten weeks because we’ve already solved the data model and integration layer across multiple school environments.
We begin every engagement with a fixed-fee discovery and data mapping stage — typically two weeks — so you know the full project scope and cost before committing to the build. Implementation costs vary based on the number of source systems, the complexity of your school’s data structure, and the stakeholder views required. Ongoing costs cover a Microsoft Fabric and Power BI licence (which your school may already hold under a Microsoft education agreement) and an Antares managed service subscription covering updates, new data connections, and support. We discuss all of this in the demo — there are no surprises.
OneView is designed to sit alongside your existing systems, not replace them. Your student information system continues to be the system of record. OneView reads from it. Teachers and leaders get a live analytical view without changing their existing workflows. Where schools have existing ad hoc Power BI reports or spreadsheet-based analysis, OneView typically absorbs these over time — but that transition happens on your terms, not as a requirement of the initial deployment.
Yes. OneView includes a parent-facing view showing their child’s performance trends, attendance, and subject-level context in plain language — accessible via a secure portal. Access is controlled via your existing identity infrastructure. Parents see only their own child’s data. The parent view is configured as part of the implementation and can be restricted to specific reporting periods or made available on an ongoing basis, depending on your school’s preference.
A 30-minute demo of OneView walks you from whole-school view down to individual student profile — using a representative data set built from a typical independent school structure. You’ll see exactly what each stakeholder role gets, and you’ll have a clear sense of whether it fits your situation.
No obligation. No automated follow-up sequence. You’ll hear from someone on the Antares education team within one business day.
