Average of Attainment 8 scores for Looked After Children at the end of key stage 4 (11114) Metric type
- Help text
- Average of Attainment 8 scores for Looked After Children at the end of key stage 4. Attainment 8 measures the average achievement of pupils in up to 8 qualifications including English (double weighted if both language and literature are taken), maths (double weighted), three further qualifications that count in the English Baccalaureate (EBacc) and three further qualifications that can be GCSE qualifications (including EBacc subjects) or any other non-GCSE qualifications on the DfE approved list.
Users should be cautious when comparing Attainment 8 scores between 2017 and 2016. In 2017, Attainment 8 scores were calculated using slightly different point score scales in comparison to 2016, in order to minimise change following the introduction of 9-1 reformed GCSEs. This means that Attainment 8 scores are likely to look different in 2017, as a result of changes to the methodology.
The local authority attainment data has children recently arrived from overseas removed. As a result, national level England figures don't match national figures from local authority data.
