Section 85A of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 requires all LA areas to have an Admission Forum. The governing body of an Academy, foundation or voluntary aided school is the admission authority for the school. Local Authorities (LAs) are admission authorities with responsibility for admissions to community and voluntary controlled schools. The measures ensure that accountability is focused on the progress that pupils or students have made from one key stage to the next, whatever their starting points. Value-added measures are also published in the primary and secondary tables. The post-16 tables report A/AS level (and equivalent) achievements at Level 3 for schools and colleges. The secondary (Key Stage 4) tables report the GCSE (and equivalent) achievements of pupils at the end of Key Stage 4. The tables report achievements for primary school pupils at the end of Key Stage 2. The DfE publishes tables that provide a reliable and easily accessible source of comparative information. Progress is the extent to which pupils have progressed in their learning given their starting points and capabilities.Īchievement and attainment tables (now known again as performance tables) Attainment is the standard of academic attainment, typically shown by test and examination results. Achievement now takes into account the standards of attainment reached by pupils and the progress they have made to reach those standards. NB Ofsted’s definition of achievement was revised in September 2009.
