I've been looking at the DfE school comparison website where you can filter data such as the percentage of pupils who get Maths and English at Grade 5 or above by prior attainment. It says that high prior attainers are those who got 110 or more in the SATs. Does this mean in at least one of the Year 6 subjects? For example, would a child who got 100 in Maths but 115 in Reading be classed as a high prior attainer because of their Reading score? Or would they be a medium prior attainer because of their Maths score?
At her school around 32% of last year's GCSE students were high prior attainers. A couple of the feeder schools have around 25-30% of children getting Greater Depth in all subjects, but the other ones have a lower percentage.
I was also wondering how the Year 10 and 11 cohort will be assessed as they didn't do SATs - the Year 7 baseline test?
