The Grade Outcomes Analysis shows the distribution of outcomes for most Level 3 courses – analysing this by KS4 average point bands.
It is the most comprehensive system available, using the full national dataset of outcomes in each year. Primarily intended for IAG when discussing likely outcomes for students, we now see it being used to work with student to identify their aspirational grades and within departments to compare their outcomes with the national distributions.
A cost-effective, straightforward graphical system to show the range of outcomes from Level 3 courses, based on GCSE grades on entry and the full national cohort data.
Post-16 Grade Predictors are based on previous outcomes of students. They provide a comparison between entry scores (normally GCSE scores) and outcomes. It is important to understand the basis of the measure and the number of students that are included.
The Outcome Analysis provides a breakdown using all students nationally that have prior learning data (GCSE results). It provides:
Grade predictors which provide a single grade do not show the full range of outcomes – they will only give you the ‘most likely’ grade, which could be very close to other grades.
The Outcome Analysis provides a source of information to promote discussion for both strategic comparisons and student support. By seeing the full range of outcomes, teachers can compare the outcomes for their subjects with the national outcomes; when students are considering their post-16 choices, pastoral staff can use the charts to discuss possible outcomes and the implications of their choices.
