OneGrade VA is designed to generate student target grades and analyse progress against those targets. This gives an indication of your potential Value Added outcomes as the academic year progresses. The VA module uses DfE national performance data on value added and completion/attainment, so that you can set targets and track progress against reliable and transparent national benchmarks.
Show Student Targets
Targets are set using DfE National Value Added and Completion/Attainment data.
In-Year Progress
Show targets against in-year progress. Up to 12 progress points during the year can be used.
Grouping by Course
As well as allowing you to analyse in-year progress on an individual basis, data can be aggregated. For example, by course, campus, department, gender, or other groupings of your choice.
Select up to 4 levels of aggregation (e.g. by course and department). Apply a filter (e.g. to implement DfE rules). Show value added by course and the numbers of students above, on and below target.
Entry Qualifications and DfE National Data
OneGrade calculates students’ average entry points scores:
It then uses its in-built national data to generate target grades:
Detailed Analysis of Published DfE Data
When the DfE publishes Progress and Completion/Attainment data, import it into OneGrade. Then import data from your student records database to enable you to do detailed data analysis by e.g. gender, ethnicity, attendance patterns, previous school, post code, faculty, department:
Completion/Attainment analysis can be performed in exactly the same way.
The Features you need
Drill-down, right-click filtering/sorting, export to MS Excel, and saved filters are all available.
Students’ targets can also be exported in a format suitable for direct import into the most widely used student tracking systems.
