Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: PLASC/NPD User Group


1
PLASC/NPD User Group
  • Mick Quinlan (Mick.Quinlan_at_naa.org.uk)
  • Change, or the lack of it
  • The Players suppliers and users
  • NC assessment process
  • A wander through the book an A-Z of the
    collection of NC assessment data

2
Forward
  • Id like to change the current process but
  • there are many players in the game each with
    existing systems and many dependencies
  • were not good at managing change!

3
Drivers for Change
  • 1998 Service delivery failure of data collection
    exercise
  • 1999 Rose report Weighing the Baby
  • 2004 Beasley report service delivery failure of
    KS3 English test results
  • 2005 Statistics Commission report 23 measuring
    standards in English Primary schools
  • 2005 Statistics Commission report 26 school
    education statistics user perspectives
  • 2006 NAO 3rd validation compendium report
    quality of data systems underpinning PSA targets
  • Broadly appropriate but system needs strengthening

4
Metadata
  • Statistics Commission 23, Feb 2005, 11
  • We feel that public presentation of the KS scores
    in statistical releases should include a clear
    statement about the uses to which the data may be
    put, and the limitations of the data in respect
    of those uses
  • Statistics Commission 26, June 2005, D
  • Full and informative statistical commentary
    should be provided alongside the figures to guide
    users

Making Good Progress
6
Changes for 2006
  • KS2/3 Electronic collection of TA, including
    pupil-level non-core results for KS3, via S2S
    rather than OMR forms
  • A decision has been taken by the Departments
    Head of Profession for Statistics not to provide
    this data until the quality and robustness can be
    assured (SFR34-2006)
  • KS3 English Richard III in, Henry V out
  • KS3 ICT onscreen test 2nd pilot (170,000 pupils)
