The above data shows positive movement over the past three years with our SSDA 903 cohort. The gap between Kent and National performance has reduced over the last three years in all four indicators, as has the attainment increased. • In Mathematics attainment has increased by 14% pts. During this period the Gap has also reduced by 8%pts. • In Reading attainment has increased by 11%pts. During this period the Gap has also reduced by 7%pts. • In Writing attainment has increased by 15%pts. During this period the Gap has also reduced by 7%pts. • In M,R and W combined attainment has increased by 9%pts. During this period the Gap has also reduced by

3%pts. It is important to note however that due to the size in our cohorts raising attainment and narrowing the gap is a bigger task due to geographical, social and emotional reasons with each child having a smaller impact as a percentage of the whole cohort. Kent also has over three times the national average of UASC whose functional English would prohibit them achieving the benchmarks. Kent also is above the NA for SDQ scores with the av score being +0.7 above and 4% pts above for the CiC falling in to the concern category. Nevertheless, VSK work hard with other KCC services across directorates, work effectively with schools, social workers and foster carers to facilitate training, signpost intervention and supply direct support. This also includes additional funding to schools via the PP+ with schools receiving just under £2m this financial year to date, which include additional 1:1 tuition , additional TA support and bespoke group interventions.

The above data shows positive movement 2010 and 2013with our SSDA 903 cohort. The gap between Kent and National performance has reduced between 2010 and 2013 in all three indicators, as has the attainment increased. • In 5GCSE A-C attainment has increased by 14.4% pts. During this period the Gap has also reduced by 6%pts. • In NI101 (5A-c inc E&M) attainment has increased by 8.6%pts. During this period the Gap has also reduced by 5.5%pts. • In A-C E&M attainment has increased by 8.6%pts. During this period the Gap has also reduced by 5.4%pts. • Based on SFR Dec 2013 Kent was one of only three counties nationally that showed an improvement in all three tests ((a)

5+GCSEs A*-C or equivalent (b) 5+ GCSEs A*-C or equivalent including E&M and (c)A*-C GCSEs in E&M)

In 2014 there were massive national changes to assessment and examination processes. These changes include (i) early GCSE entries dis-incentivised; (ii) English GCSE final examination weighting has been increased to 60%; (iii) shift to end of course examination approach. Kent has showed a downturn on last year’s performance of 1.8% based on any entry, more concerning we have seen a further 5% drop based on first entry only. It is important to note however that 2013-14 academic year saw nearly a 20% increase in the number of eligible children, this means that each young person has a smaller impact on the overall percentage achieved. This coupled with geographical, social and emotional reasons with Kent having over three times the national average of UASC whose functional English would prohibit them achieving the benchmarks and above the NA for SDQ scores with the av score being +0.7 above and 4% pts above for the CiC falling in to the concern category. These cohort specific issues were always going to see a downturn in performance.
