Dear (name)

Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 4 Value Added Reports by Subject

Thank you for the feedback I received on the pack of NCER reports sent to schools three weeks ago. The amendments to this year’s GCSE results that were forwarded to me have been adjusted in the database.

I am now able to provide you with KS3 to KS4 value added graphs for each subject. NCER have provided a median analysis for most subjects, but not all, so if a subject is not included in this pack, it means no national lines are available. Please note that the graphs make use of last year’s median and quartile lines. This is because the current year’s lines are not yet available (but they are not expected to be very different from last year’s). Short Courses are not provided for at present. Due to the large number of graphs to be printed, it is not practical to reproduce them in colour. I hope black and white copies are acceptable.

Also included in the pack are two reports that have just been made available, one is a school report showing trends over five years, and the other is a national report showing provisional benchmark figures.

Once again, if you have any comments to make on this or any other performance data, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerely

Chris Jackson (Mrs)

Deputy Head of Management Information Centre
