Click Edit or Delete ![Hiding PA](https://support.pupilprogress.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Hiding%20PA.gif?width=688&name=Hiding%20PA.gif) ### Why is it not letting me delete the Published Assessment? Each unit needs to have at least one **Published Assessment** that is **Counting towards the Unit and Summary Grades**. If you are trying to delete the only one for that unit, it will not let you. You may have a second **Published Assessment**set for a unit, but check if it is **Counting towards the Unit and Summary Grades** and has been added to all classes. If not, then you will need to **Edit** the **Published Assessment**  you are keeping and tick the **Counting towards the Unit and Summary Grades** box. ### How can I make a paper count/ not count towards the grade? You may wish to still show a **Published Assessment** on the tracker and reports, but for it not to count towards the grade. Go to **Edit** the **Published Assessment** and then deselect the **Counting towards the Unit and Summary Grades box.** To make it count again, then go back to **Edit** and re-tick **Counting towards the Unit and Summary Grades** box and save the changes.  ### How can I make a paper not count towards the grade if it is the only one assigned to that unit? As mentioned, each unit must have at least one assessment counting towards the overall grades in every class. If there is only one assessment currently assigned, you are then able to **add a new assessment**, title it whatever is most relevant (e.g. 'Default Assessment'), and then ensure that this one is counting - as long as there are no marks entered into the assessment, your students' grades will not be affected. Once the alternative Published Assessment has been created, you will be able to stop the initial one from counting. ![Editing PA counting](https://support.pupilprogress.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Editing%20PA%20counting.gif?width=688&height=347&name=Editing%20PA%20counting.gif) ### How can I hide a Published Assessment for a class Go to **Edit** and then scroll down to the classes. Untick the classes that you want to hide the **Published Assessment** for and then press **Save Published Assessment.** You will need at least one active, visible Published Assessment counting towards the grade calculations, otherwise, you will not be able to save the changes.  - [Getting set up on Pupil Progress](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/getting-set-up-on-pupil-progress?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Starting off](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/getting-set-up-on-pupil-progress?hsLang=en#starting-off) - [Trackers - first look](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/getting-set-up-on-pupil-progress?hsLang=en#trackers-first-look) - [Using your trackers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Features and Functions](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#features-and-functions) - [Editing classes](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#editing-classes) - [Tests and Past Papers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#tests-and-past-papers) - [Tiers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/using-your-trackers?hsLang=en#tiers) - [Data and Analysis](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/data-and-analysis?hsLang=en) - [Managing your account](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Login issues](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#login-issues) - [Permissions](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#permissions) - [Subscriptions](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/managing-your-account?hsLang=en#subscriptions) - [For Data Managers](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/for-data-managers?hsLang=en) - [Exam board specific changes](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/exam-board-specific-changes?hsLang=en) - [Who we are and why we exist](https://support.pupilprogress.com/migration/helpcentre/who-we-are-and-why-we-exist?hsLang=en) - [Contact Page](https://www.pupilprogress.com/contact-us) - [About Page](https://www.pupilprogress.com/about-us) - [Pupil Progress Blog](https://www.pupilprogress.com/blog) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://support.pupilprogress.com/hubfs/logotype-1.svg "Chill listening crop-3")](https://www.pupilprogress.com) Copyright © 2026, Pupil Progress
