14-19 update3
KS4 reforms – a reminder
•5A*-C replaced by ‘Progress 8’ for floor standards•Additional reporting of – ‘Attainment 8’–Maths and English–EBacc
•Double weighting of maths and English in Progress 8 and Attainment 8
•New approach applies to all for 2016 results (2014 cohort)
•Opt in opportunity for 2015 results•Schools will get ‘shadow data’ for 2014 results

14-19 update5
New points system
•Current points system seen to be complex and lack transparency
•New principles proposed:–The ratio between high and low grades should be large enough to encourage students to focus on high performance
–The difference between grades should be closer to the difference between a fail and the lowest grade
–Point scores for the most common qualifications should appear simple and logical

Attainment 8 and Progress 8
•Not ‘best 8’•The 8 qualifications which meet the formula•The difference between the actual grade and the ‘target’ grade
•DfE example:–A student has a target of 8 x B–Actual achievement 4 x B and 4 x C–4 grades lower across the 8–VA is -0.5 grade–Average of all learner VA scores for school score

Calculating Progress 8examples are for illustration purposes only
Example 1: The student’s weighted total is 63 points Divide this total by 10 to get the Attainment 8 score 63 ÷ 10 = 6.3 This student’s average attainment is a bit better than a grade B across 8
subjects Assume the average KS4 attainment for students with a similar KS2
performance is 6.0 points Progress 8 is the difference between the actual score and the expected
score Actual = 6.3, expected = 6.0. Progress 8 = 6.3 – 6.0 = +0.3• Calculate mean average of all students’ VA scores to get overall school VA• School VA below -0.5 may lead to intervention

14-19 update14
Calculating Progress 8 – fewer than 8 subjects
•‘It can be of more benefit to less-able students to strive for good grades (and hence score more points) in fewer subjects, with the emphasis on doing well in English and mathematics, than to take more subjects but achieve lower grades overall.’ (DfE Factsheet: Progress 8 measure – February 2014)
•More time available per subject allows additional support in English Language, and mathematics
•More time available to offer larger programmes in subjects which will interest and motivate eg BTEC

Calculating Progress 8 – fewer than 8 subjectsexamples are for illustration purposes only
Example 2: The student’s weighted total is 34 points Divide this total by 10 to get the Attainment 8 score 34 ÷ 10 = 3.4 This student’s average attainment is halfway between a grade E and a grade D
across 8 subjects Assume the average KS4 attainment for students with a similar KS2 performance is
3.0 points Progress 8 is the difference between the actual score and the expected score Actual = 3.4, expected = 3.0. Progress 8 = 3.4 – 3.0 = +0.4
Note that the English Literature grade does not contribute because there are three better grades eligible for the third group

BTEC National in Sport or IT. Will need to continue with maths, but not much ground to make up
Candidate Y can only progress to L2 study. Will need to continue with maths and English – with considerable ground to make up

Meeting the various English requirements
• Attainment 8 and Progress 8:o Either English Language or English Literature; no minimum gradeo Points for better grade will be double weighted if both taken• English (and maths) measure:o Either English Language or English Literature; minimum grade Co No requirement to have taken both subjects• Ebacc:o English Language and English Literature must be takeno Grade C required in either• ‘Good pass’ to meet 16-19 study programme requirements:o Grade C in English Language required• For all measures, GCSE in English will also count on its own – 2016

BTEC Firsts in Science
The BTEC Firsts in Principles of Applied Science and Application of Science may be included in the 2016 Performance Tables in the ‘open group’ of Progress 8 and Attainment 8.
From 2017 onwards, DfE is excluding from the list of qualifications included in key stage 4 performance tables, non-GCSE qualifications whose content is similar to those of English Baccalaureate (EBacc) subjects, namely maths, English, science (including computer science), geography, history and languages. This means that from 2017 the BTEC Firsts in Principles of Applied Science and Application of Science will no longer be included in Progress 8 or Attainment 8

14-19 update21
The first entry rule
• Concerns abouto early entryo multiple entryo multiple results• Covers all subjects and qualifications eligible for
performance tables (Ebacc subjects only for 2014 results, all from 2015)
• Does not cover AS levels
![Page 22: 14-19 update1 Accountability (& study programmes) 3](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649c785503460f9492dc41/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
14-19 update22
Defining ‘entry’
• GCSE or L1/2 Certificate ‘entry’ is the date of the first paper taken
• Where there is not a fixed exam date (eg GCSE Drama, Art & Design) the date will be the final date of the assessment window
• BTEC ‘entry’ is the final date for claiming an award (which will lead to a guaranteed result in time for inclusion in performance tables)
![Page 23: 14-19 update1 Accountability (& study programmes) 3](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649c785503460f9492dc41/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Post-16 accountability
• New approach applies to reporting of 2016 results• Will cover L2 and below for the first time• Builds on the division of qualifications into Academic,
Applied General and Tech Level• Separate reporting so that strengths and weaknesses can
more easily be identified• Emphasis on progress, as in KS4, but only for Academic
and AG• TL and L2 reporting on combined attainment and
completion• Reporting on maths and English achievement at L2, and
achievement of maths at L3

GCSE English and maths
Rules for those who have not achieved A*-C in GCSE English and/or maths by age 16 and will be commencing a post-16 programme in September 2015:
• Those with a grade D will only be funded if they are put on a GCSE course
• Those with lower than grade D will be funded to take a ‘stepping stone’ qualification first but the intention must be that they will be working towards retaking their GCSE
