How are you performing in different subjects? Do you have any under-performing groups of pupils? How might the context of your school affect performance? How does pupil attendance compare to the national average?
Important information for analysing 2016 results
The national curriculum and school performance indicators have changed with scaled scores replacing levels. The expected standard for pupils in 2016 is higher than the expected standard in previous years. Schools should take care when comparing performance using old indicators (e.g. Level 4+ or APS) and new indicators (e.g. % Expected Standard and Scaled Scores) To provide trends over time and context for the 2016 results, FFT has converted pupil results from previous years to the new 2016 DFE performance indicators, taking into account the new standards. The blue dotted line on trend charts highlights the changes in 2016.
