A new report shows that the gap in the percentage of disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged 16 year olds achieving a grade 4 or above in English and maths is much wider than previously estimated.
Research by FFT Education Datalab found an increasing number of pupils, both disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged, leaving mainstream schools last year for an unknown destination. In total, 24,600 disappeared from school rolls compared with 22,000 in the previous year, amid concern around “off-rolling”, whereby schools remove difficult or low-achieving pupils so that they are not included in their GCSE results.
This evaluation of Year 3 of the #APConnect professional development programme for Advanced Practitioners provides an inspiring review of how APs across the country are shaping, driving and supporting quality improvement across the sector.
The #APConnect Northstar Train the Trainers in Advanced Practice pathway is an exciting, fresh and cutting-edge professional development opportunity for experienced Advanced Practitioners.
A new Education and Training Foundation anthology of project reports highlighting the value of action research in the post-16 Education and Training sector is now available.
