DFE Subject KS2-4 Transition Data & Target Setting

These are resources that could be useful for seondary school senior leaders, subject leaders and data managers to set targets for the end of KS4. They are based on the KS2 SAT - KS4 GCSEs subject transition matrices using the 2019 data.

The techniques used are based on statistical and probability methodologies. You may initially have some difficulty with the concepts but with perseverance it should become clear.

In certain parts of the accompanying presentations I have drawn some conclusions e.g. regarding closing attainment gaps between genders and disadvantaged and non disadvantaged. These are my own and you may wish to draw alternative conclusions, all data and sources used are included to enable this.

There are several spreadsheets used included with the resources. These are locked to prevent accidental deletion of formulas used. If you need or wish to change any of these the password used is 1234.
