The latest Key Stage 4 data has been released.
The data, released by the Department for Education, marks student’s progress using the Progress 8 and Attainment 8 figures from the latest GCSE results.
A Progress 8 score is a type of “value added” measure which means pupils’ results are compared to achievements of other pupils with similar prior attainment.
Attainment 8 measures the achievement of a pupil across eight qualifications including maths and English. Each individual grade a pupil achieves is assigned a point score, which is then used to calculate a pupil’s Attainment 8 score.
The data used is provisional figures from this summer’s GCSE results.
