Whether or not to Contextualise?Type of Analysis Advantages Disadvantages
Raw Outcomes e.g. %L4+ Provides a view as to whether pupils are attaining the
knowledge and skills needed for their next stage of
education?
When used to compare schools, depends strongly
upon attainment of the school’s intake.
Value-Added Enables a focus upon progress irrespective of context e.g.
How well are our FSM pupils doing compared to our non-
FSM pupils?
Comparing value-added outcomes for schools with
different contexts and make-up of intakes can be
misleading.
Contextual Value-Added Aims to take account of factors which are outside the school’s control and which,
from analysing national data, can be shown to influence
progress.
If used to look ahead (estimates) then danger of ‘self-fulfilling prophecy’ for
pupils in groups who currently under-perform nationally.
Differences – VA and CVA• Compare PA (Value-added) and SX (Contextual Value-Added)
outcomes for KS2->4 in 2009/10.– Use KS4 Capped Points Score as outcome measure.– Look at how many change significant state.– Analyses by grouping schools in different socio-economic contexts.

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.

In Lambeth, most schools have VA better than CVA – this is mainly related to the progress of ethnic
minority pupils.

Recommendations
Expected Progress• DfE Approach
– Whole Levels, Subject Specific Input– So, for example, 68% L4 in Mathematics at KS2 attained grade C or
higher at KS4 in 2011
• FFT Approach– Differentiate within levels (using Fine Grades)– Take into account prior attainment in English and Mathematics

Using Estimates
• Estimate -> Prediction -> Target• Consider option of range - realistic and ambitious• Don’t add up ‘estimated levels / grades’

Two basic approachesTwo 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

Adding up estimated levels – why not?• Consider a group of 50 ‘identical’ pupils• They all have the same estimates:

Note : Adding up predicted or target grades is fine – assuming that they are not simply just using
unmoderated estimates!
