<\/p>\nSchools need to be able to judge progress at many different levels – for individuals, groups of pupils and at the whole-schools level, and also over various periods of time – within a year, one years, more than one year, and across key stages. \u00a0Key stage reporting has always, and remains the mainstay of discussions with external agencies such as Ofsted, advisors and SIPs, plus Governing bodies. \u00a0Schools also want to compare progress against a range of expectations if possible, including CASPA’s benchmarking, levels, quartiles and compare actual progress and target progress against these benchmarks.<\/p>\n

The single reporting option ‘Reports | Key Stage reporting using Progression Materials’ provides a suite of key stage reporting:<\/p>\n
If you are already familiar with the traffic light graph, you will find it relatively quick and easy to make good use of this suite of reporting as the look and feel of the options, as well as style of reporting, are very similar.<\/p>\n
…take a look at a video clip that introduces CASPA’s Key Stage reporting using Progression Materials<\/a>.<\/p>\n Simply make your selections for the key stage transition you are interested in, the cohort of pupils, the start and end year (if not pre-selected by CASPA based on other selections) and subject… and away you go. \u00a0Two tabs will be displayed immediately catering for whole levels and quartiles analysis. \u00a0Select the ‘Show CASPA’ button at the top of the page for CASPA’s traffic light graph.<\/p>\n Don’t forget to explore the grouping options to compare the progress of one group of pupils against others (eg Pupil Premium – click here<\/a>\u00a0for this example) whilst the ‘Plot by group’ button is selected (the default when opening this reporting). \u00a0Also explore progress across all subjects, or aspects by clicking the ‘Plot by subject’ button. \u00a0And for a detail report of the key data used in the report, select the ‘Report’ button.<\/p>\n The most frequent question we receive on this reporting, and the traffic light graph is probably to understand the numbers of pupils missing start\/end levels or who have levels that are out of range. \u00a0It is valuable to explore these as they explain why it is not possible to include these pupils within the graphs, but perhaps as important is to test whether you can reduce the numbers of pupils in both of these categories, as is often the case. \u00a0Please click on the link in each bullet below to see two articles covering each of these in turn.<\/p>\n ‘Expected’ progress for pupils working in the NC Levels in Key Stage 2 was always regarded as making 2 levels – usually 3 levels\u00a0for Key Stage 2 to 4. \u00a0For pupils attaining below level 1 of the National Curriculum at the end of Key Stage 1 or 2, the starting point for evaluation was that expected progress is the median level, which referred to those published in\u00a0the Progression Materials 2010-2011 document and associated data set 3.<\/p>\n CASPA provides a range of reporting:<\/p>\n All of these can be found via Reports | Key Stage analysis using Progression Materials<\/strong>.\u00a0 Use the F1 key to open CASPA’s help system for details.<\/p>\n A few other features to highlight are:<\/p>\n\n
