We've been looking into how schools' Progress 8 scores change over time. And we found that the most disadvantaged schools have tended to see their scores fall since P8 was introduced in 2016, and the least disadvantaged tended to see them rise. ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/change…
Our latest post looks at how P8 scores have changed since 2016, when the measure was first introduced. While the average scores for most regions are similar now to 2016, the gap between London and the rest of the country has increased. 🔗 ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/change…
NEW: Changes in schools’ Progress 8 scores over time Our latest post takes a look at how the Progress 8 scores of schools have changed since the measure was introduced, including breakdowns by region, school type, and school-level disadvantage. ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/change…
Published DfE statistics for 2022/23 showed an increase in exclusions and suspensions compared to the previous year. And our analysis of attendance registers for 2023/24 suggests there that rates have increased again this year. ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/exclus…
Our analysis of attendance registers found that nearly one in six disadvantaged pupils in Years 9 and 10 have been suspended or excluded at least once so far this academic year. 🔗ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/exclus…
Exclusion and suspension rates are continuing to increase. Our analysis of attendance registers suggests that 1 in 12 Year 10 pupils have been suspended at least once this academic year. 🔗ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/exclus…
Another excellent analysis from @FFTEduDatalab The figures themselves are alarming but for me the key sentence is this: “This will become apparent when DfE publishes statistics for last term this time next year.”, meaning there will be no action taken… ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/exclus…

NEW: Exclusion and suspension rates in Autumn and Spring term 2023/24 Based on our analysis of attendance registers, rates of exclusions and suspensions in Autumn and Spring terms 2023/24 were even higher than last year. ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/exclus…
@FFTEduDatalab ALL London are hosting a FREE webinar by David Blow about grading in ML which will build on the work in your FFT article+ look ahead to the new GCSEs in ML Sep 24, incl. unpicking common misconceptions about raw marks, grade boundaries etc. Registration: tickettailor.com/events/associa…
More than 90% of pupils excluded at primary school & 77% of those who are suspended don't get a Grade 4 or above in GCSE English/maths; they are also much more likely to be persistently absent at secondary school. Analysis from @FFTEduDatalab @ChanceUK buff.ly/3Jl0DQQ
From time to time we lament the harsh grading of GCSEs in modern foreign languages. In our latest blogpost, we take a look at the 2023 data to see if anything has changed. Unsurprisingly, it hasn’t. ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/04/langua…
Excited to see new #LEOdata resources out today, including a new look gov.uk webpage! Great to work with colleagues @educationgovuk on these, supported by our @adr_uk LEO grant. gov.uk/government/pub… Not the shortest or catchiest link, but we'll take it!
DfE has confirmed there will be no P8 replacement for the next two years. The foundation of the accountability system will be absent with no alternative offered. A big shift for 24/25 and 25/26. tes.com/magazine/news/…
