  4. Whether or not to Contextualise?

  5. Differences – VA and CVA • Compare PA (Value-added) and SX (Contextual Value-Added) outcomes for KS2->4 in 2009/10. • Use KS2 Average Points Score as outcome measure. • Look at how many change significant state. • Analyses by grouping schools in different socio-economic contexts. In Lambeth, most schools have VA better than CVA – this is mainly related to the progress of ethnic minority pupils. To get some idea of the likely change for your school, compare PA and SX value-added outcomes on FFT Live or in FFT Self-Evaluation reports.

  6. Recommendations

  7. Expected Progress • DfE Approach • Whole Levels, Subject Specific Input • So, for example, 84% L2 in Mathematics at KS1 attained L4+ at KS2 in 2011 • FFT Approach • Differentiate within levels where possible (2ABC) • Take into account prior attainment in English and Mathematics

  8. FFT Live Includes: • Latest updates • Future releases • Help Files

  9. SETS • Key Changes for 2011 • Default changed to PA (Prior Attainment) • SX (Contextual VA) continues to be available • Option to SORT available on Pupil Estimates report

  10. Self-Evaluation Significant Areas Grid • Range of pupil groups and indicators • KS1 Contextual and KS1->2 VA / CVA • 3 Year summary, Overall + Trends • Significant Areas Detail • Shows actual attainment and VA/CVA scores for each year • Can be accessed by clicking on Significant Areas grid • Pupil Value-Added • KS1->KS2, VA or CVA • Highlights where progress is mode than half a NC level above or below national average

  11. Estimates School Summary Estimates • Range of Indicators and Pupil Groups • A – PA 50th Percentile; B – SE 50th Percentile, • D – SE 25th Percentile; S – School Previous • Pupil Summary Estimates • Types A, B, D • Range of indicators (overall level, L4+, L5+) • Reading and Writing not included • School Subject Estimates • Core Subjects including Reading and Writing and Expected Progress for English and Mathematics • Outcomes for all levels (not just L4+ and L5+) • Some pupil groupings available • Pupil Subject Estimates • Can be accessed directly or from School Subject Estimates • Show likelihood of attaining all levels (L2 to L5) • Also provides option to show ‘most likely level’

  12. Using Estimates • Estimate -> Prediction -> Target • Consider option of range - realistic and ambitious • Don’t add up ‘estimated levels’ Two basic approaches • Start with pupil data • Take into account other factors • Add up and compare with overall estimates • Revise as necessary to arrive at overall targets • Use overall estimates and evaluation of past performance to draft overall targets • Use ‘RANK’ option in FFT School Subject Estimates to set overall figure at your overall targets • Click on link to pupil estimates

  13. Adding up estimated levels – why not? • Consider a group of 20 ‘identical’ pupils • They all have the same estimates: If we add up the ‘GM’ grades If we average the ‘chances’ for each level and multiply by number of pupils Note : Adding up predicted or target grades is fine – assuming that they are not simply just using unmoderated estimates!

  14. KS1 Estimates • In development section • Introduced in summer 2011 following a year of trialling and feedback – which was very positive! • Examples of relationship between FSP and KS1 attainment Remember that these are averages! Chart below shows KS1 Maths Levels for FSP MAT scores between 18 and 22 CLL -> Reading MAT -> Maths

  15. FSP to KS1 - Factors Approximate Weightings

  16. Other Reports • Export Section • Provides additional data (e.g. UPN, FFT_ID) which is not available on SETS reports • Removes formatting and colours, so easier to import into other systems • Student Explorer • Select students by range of characteristics • Look at individual pupil history • Developments: • FSM as pre-set group (can currently select using drop-down menus) • Pilot estimate report which takes into account factors such as EAL and when arrived in UK
