Age Related - Target
How does this calculation method work?
This calculation method is different from the other two age-related calculations in that; they work on
the principle that 100% of what has either been taught or assessed must be at the target status or
higher.
This calculation provides the flexibility for schools to define a target % of objectives that need to be
at target status or higher for the student to be classed as AR.
The calculation works as follows: based upon the % target that you have defined, we work out how
many objectives the student needs to have had assessed at target status or higher:
- If they have equal to or greater than that number: the is student AR.
- If they have less than that number: the student is BAR.
Here is an example of how this might work:
Based on this example, if there are 20 objectives (10 of which are specified as KPIs) students will be classed as working at age-related if they have been assessed at the target status or higher for the following numbers of objectives in each time period:
Assessment Period | Target % | #KPIs needed to be AR |
---|---|---|
Autumn 1 | 20 | 2 |
Autumn 2 | 30 | 3 |
Spring 1 | 40 | 4 |
Spring 2 | 50 | 5 |
Summer 1 | 70 | 7 |
Summer 2 | 85 | 9 |
