  6. National Targets for Pupils Achievingat least Level 5 • Schools to set targets for En, Ma and Sc by end of April 2001 for the 2002 tests • LEAs may have to set a minimum target of 65% for En and Ma, and 60% for Sc

  7. GCSE Subject Residuals • A residual is the difference between a pupil’s result in one subject and the average of all their results • When calculated nationally, a residual highlights the differences in difficulty between subjects • The comparison of residuals for a county or school with the national residuals shows the relative attainment of pupils in different subjects • Variations due to differences in ability are removed, since results are compared with other results of the same pupil

  8. An Example of a Residual • A* = 8 points, A = 7, B = 6, C = 5, D = 4, etc • Attainment in maths = Grade C • Attainment in other subjects = A, B, B, D ,E, C • Points score in maths = 5 • Points score in other subjects = 31 • Average score for subjects other than maths is 31/6 = 5.17 • Performance in maths is almost a fifth of a grade lower than the average for all other subjects
