Raising academic standards

Factors
(work in progress)
• Outcome measures which reflect all
levels of pupil performance
• A measure of each pupil’s prior
attainment
• Skills and attitudes at KS2
How do we measure value
added?
• Baseline and outcome measures are
required at each Key Stage.
• Since 2009, using CEM products MidYIS in Year 8 and YELLIS in Year 11
• Pupil voice - on line surveys, lesson
evaluation
Comparing internal examination
results with MidYIS score

Key Stage 4
• Yellis testing September
• Information session for pupils and parents at the
end of September
• Results PLUS teachers’ professional judgement
used to set target grades for each GCSE subject
by end of October
• Interim reports produced March of Year 11 , and
October and March of Year 12 to supplement the
longer, traditional reports produced followed Jan
and May examinations
Intervention Strategies
• RAG analysis following each set of reports
(including interim reports) to identify any
pupils who are underperforming against
targets
• Identify those pupils who will benefit from
support from Learning Mentor
• Combined between subject teachers and
pastoral staff
• Parents informed
Sixth Form
• Similar process followed using GCSE point
score as a baseline measure
• Pupils and parents attend an information
session at the end of September and receive
the C2k generated A level predictions
• Interim reports in October and March of Year
13 and 14
• Examination period in January for both year
groups
Future Plans
• Move to GL PiE and PiM in Year 8 to assess
literacy and numeracy levels and to stream for
English and Mathematics
• CAT4 testing at the beginning of Year 10 (or
end of Year 9)
• CAT 4 testing at the beginning of Year 11 to set
target grades for GCSE
• Focus on raising standards in literacy and
numeracy
