Overview Statistics table now includes Internal Leadership Review and Peer-to-Peer review status and numbers
The Overview statistics table in EANR is now updated to include Internal Leadership Review and Peer-to-Peer review status and numbers.
Through the new part of the overview statistics table users can now see at a glance the number of institutions with completed and in progress Internal Leadership Reviews as well as those with in progress and completed Peer-to-Peer reviews for the current academic year.
The table is interactive so users can click on each number in the table to view the list of institutions at different stages of their Careers Impact System journey to review those institutions, or download the list into Excel for further analysis if needed.

Employers which are organisations and not a limited company are now automatically created in EANR employer database when they register for Teacher Encounters
Following the updates made previously in the Online registration form for public sector employers who register for encounters, a new functionality has been implemented in the system which automatically adds these organisations into EANR employers database. This means Career Hubs no longer need to ask CEC teams to manually add these employers to the system. We will further improve this functionality in the future so that the Teacher Encounter is also automatically added to the newly added employer in EANR.

Standard wording now being used for Compass Evaluation across all digital products

Updates to the Overview Statistics table
Following the changes that were made to classification of Independent Special Schools (CEC institution type is now set to SEND instead of OTHER), the Overview Statistics table in EANR is now updated to reflect this change and provide clear data. The new table has 3 columns which shows:
-
State funded Institutions including section 41 funded Independent special schools
This column contains all the public (state funded) schools including the independent SEND schools which receive government funding through section 41. For these schools the CEC institution type could be Mainstream, AP, Post 16, State and section 41 funded SEND schools -
SEND - Independent Special Schools not section 41 funded
This column contains all the independent SEND schools which do not receive section 41 funding. For these schools the CEC institution type is Non section 41 independent special schools -
Other Independent schools
This column contains all other independent schools which are not SEND. For these schools the CEC institution type is Other.

Compass+ decline dropdown added to Institution records
The 'Reasons why the institution declined the option to upgrade to Compass+' data field in EANR has been converted to a multi-select dropdown list instead of a Free Text box. If users select 'Yes' in the 'Institution declined to upgrade to Compass+' question, they will be presented with a dropdown list of reasons why the institution has declined to upgrade to Compass+. Users can choose and select one or multiple reasons from the available options. This change will provide a better user experience for users and better data analysis and follow up ability to CEC staff who review this data.

Partner Language
Language has been adjusted wherever possible to move away from the reference to “LEPs” when we refer to Partners, to be more open to the wider range of Partners now delivering Hubs, which are often Combined Authorities and Local Authorities.
