# Interim KS4 performance measures in GO 4 Schools

On the 28th of June 2019 Welsh Government released Guidance on the data, analysis and expectations required for the interim KS4 performance measures for 2019 onwards, which can be found via the link below:

[https://gov.wales/interim-key-stage-4-school-performance-arrangements](https://gov.wales/interim-key-stage-4-school-performance-arrangements)

This aim of this guidance is to outline where this analysis can be accessed in GO 4 Schools, but it may also be helpful to read the more detailed ‘**[Analysing KS4 data (Wales)](https://support.go4schools.com/en/support/solutions/articles/80000954385)** and **[KS4 Subject Analysis](https://support.go4schools.com/en/support/solutions/articles/80001053968)**

#### **The Capped 9 measure (interim)**

A detailed overview of how we calculate the Capped 9 can be found in a document entitled **[Calculating Capped 9 – Post 2018](https://support.go4schools.com/en/support/solutions/articles/80000965966).**

 

To view the Capped 9 score for each of the enabled grade types, broken down by the four areas (literacy, numeracy, science and other), click on the arrow to the right of the measure in the headline key statistics table on the year group page:

#### **Welsh Baccalaureate Skills Challenge Certificate - points score**

Outputs relating to the Skills Challenge Certificate can be found in the highlighted sections of the key statistics table.

You can find the following:

1. Average Points Score (APS)
2. Percentage of students achieving the National level
3. Percentage of students achieving the Foundation level
4. Volume contribution for the Skills Challenge Certificate

#### **Analysis and Publication: Grade distributions**

It is possible to view the grade distribution for subjects via the at a glance charts on subject pages (if they have been enabled (**Curriculum \> Analysis settings \> Statistics and analysis settings**). Please note, the Capped 9 charts are the overall capped 9 and not for specific subject areas i.e. numeracy when viewing in this subject:

#### **5A\*-A**

This is available in the key statistics table via the drop down entitled ‘3+ A\*-A GCSE (or equiv.)’, and a break down for this measure by focus group can be found via the focus group link:

#### **Level 2 inclusive**

Although there has been a move away from threshold performance measures, schools will still want to analyse the two versions of the Level 2 inclusive: one with and one without Welsh or English literature qualifications being able to contribute towards the literacy component.

These are available in the key statistics table as highlighted below:
