Purpose

Accessed from the Statutory Dashboard in Sonar Tracker, the Key Stage Two Widget highlights the percentage of eligible pupils in your school who achieved Expected or Greater Depth, or Greater Depth by the end of Key Stage Two for the subjects Reading, Writing, Mathematics and all three combined (Reading, Writing and Mathematics).

Details of the Statutory Data Eligibility Rules that govern these measures are provided in a sub-section below. This will help you to understand which pupils are included in these measures and how the measures are calculated.

Elements

Field Name	Description
Expected or Greater Depth - Combined RWM	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved the expected standard or a greater depth within the expected standard for all three subjects, Reading, Writing and Mathematics combined.
Expected or Greater Depth - Reading	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved the expected standard or a greater depth within the expected standard for Reading.
Expected or Greater Depth - Writing	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved the expected standard or a greater depth within the expected standard for Writing.
Expected or Greater Depth - Mathematics	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved the expected standard or a greater depth within the expected standard for Mathematics.
Greater Depth - Combined RWM	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved a greater depth within the expected standard for all three subjects, Reading, Writing and Mathematics combined.
Greater Depth - Reading	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved a greater depth within the expected standard for Reading.
Greater Depth - Writing	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved a greater depth within the expected standard for Writing.
Greater Depth - Mathematics	Percentage of eligible pupils (excluding Leavers) in your school at the end of Key Stage Two who have achieved a greater depth within the expected standard for Mathematics.
Year on year indicator	For each measure, a year-on-year indicator is displayed: Year-on-year performance increases are shown in green with an up arrow. Year-on-year performance decreases are displayed in red with a down arrow. Both increases and decreases values are displayed. In Example 2, this year's performance is 52.5%, up from last year's 43.6%, a change of 8.9%. This example uses percentages, but the same principle applies to numeric values.

Statutory Data Eligibility Rules

The following rules apply to determining which pupils are included in the calculations above using their data stored in Sonar Tracker.

Cohort

Year Six pupils (excluding Leavers) for the Current Academic Year.

Eligible Pupils - Individual Subjects

For each individual subject headline measure, eligibility is determined based on whether a pupil has any result in:

• Reading and Mathematics
  • In raw scores / scaled scores / outcome.
  • If no raw score / scaled score / outcome then a Reading TA / Mathematics TA result (any alpha) counts.
• Writing and Science
  • Any result in Writing TA / Science TA.

Eligible Pupils - Combined Subjects

For the combined headline measures eligibility should be calculated on the number of pupils (not Leavers) who have any alpha or numerical result recorded in Mathematics raw score / scaled score / TA, Reading raw score / scaled score / TA and Writing TA within Sonar Tracker. For Mathematics and Reading, if a pupil has a TA result, by definition they cannot be EXS or GDS but should still be counted as eligible.

Not Eligible Pupils - Individual Subjects

Pupils who are not eligible are:

• Those with no result in the subject for raw scores / outcomes or TA (those that have no assessment data recorded against them).
• Those with missing assessment data.

Not Eligible Pupils - Combined Subjects

Pupils who are not eligible are:

• Those with no results in any of the three subjects for raw scores / outcomes or TA (those that have no assessment data recorded against them).
• Those with a result in at least one of the three subjects, but not all three (Reading raw score / scaled score or TA, Writing TA, Mathematics raw score / scaled score or TA).
• Those with missing assessment data.

Example

There are 30 pupils (excluding Leavers) in Year Six with data stored in Sonar Tracker:

• 27 pupils have results in all four subjects (in either raw score or TA depending on the rules above).
• 1 pupil has no data in any Key Stage Two assessment (no data in raw scores, outcomes or TA).
• 1 pupil is missing a result for Science TA (but does have raw scores and outcomes for Mathematics and Reading and a Writing TA result).
• 1 pupil has no results in raw scores or outcomes but does have a Reading TA, Writing TA but no Mathematics TA or Science TA.
