  1. Value Added and Distance Travelled and the Learner Achievement Tracker Yvonne Fullwood New Measures of Success LSC, National Office

  2. Fair, valid and ‘fit for purpose’ measures Four partners: LSC, DfES, ALI, OFSTED ‘Basket’ of measures to contextualise performance Application across the sector No additional bureaucratic burden Context of the New Measures

  3. Qualification success rate (QSR) Value Added and Distance Travelled measures (VA/DT) Recognising and recording progress and achievement (RARPA) New Measures of Success 4. Learner satisfaction • Learner destinations • Provider responsiveness to employers • Value for money (VFM) • Staff measures

  4. Improvement and inspection: LSC: Value Added and Distance Travelled data for 16-19 learners Learner Achievement Tracker (LAT) Provider Gateway DfES accountability: VA for 16 – 19 Learners included in the School and College Achievement Tables pilot Purpose of VA and DT for 16-19 learners

  5. Measures the progression in qualifications of 16-19 learners based on their prior attainment ie, how well do learners do post-16 based on their achievement at Key Stage 4? Cover the majority of larger, approved qualifications taken by 16-19 learners, including vocational and ungraded qualifications Overview (1)

  6. Overview (2) • VA for 16-19 learners will measure achievement in Level 3 • graded qualifications, for example: • GCE A and AS level • AVCE • BTEC National Diploma • DT for 16-19 learners will include other approved • Qualifications at levels 1,2 and 3 for example: • NVQ • Foundation and Intermediate GNVQ • GCSE • BTEC First

  7. Learner AchievementTracker (LAT) • Produces reports for use by teachers, managers, inspectors and LSC • Accessible via the Provider Gateway • Uses most robust statistical methods available and includes full national sample • Builds on proprietary systems currently available • Software and data free of charge to all LSC-funded providers and LAs

  8. VA and DT data • Data used to calculate the VA and DT for 16 – 19 learners is gathered directly from the the awarding bodies • Additional data from the ILR is required to calculate DT for 16 – 19 learners • Providers will not be involved in collecting data for the measure • Providers will be involved in checking the accuracy of the VA data

  9. Issues for further exploration • Learners with missing or no prior attainment • Context variables • Customising the LAT • Treatment of AS levels in the VA measure • Treatment of fails in the VA measure • Use of success rate for DT
