2. Progress 8 The government will give every child an EXPECTED grade for every subject. VA is then the ACTUAL grade minus the EXPECTED grade. A pupil’s VA score is then the average of their ATTAINMENT 8 subjects (EN&MA double weighted + 3 EBacc subjects + 3 of the rest GCSE & Vocational on THE LIST) The average VA score for all pupils in the Yr11 cohort is calculated to find a school’s Progress 8 VA score. Opt in opportunity for 2015 results Schools will get ‘shadow data’ for 2014 results

Schools in which pupils make an average of +1.0 grade more progress than expected across their 8 subjects will NOT be inspected by Ofsted during the next academic year. New Progress 8 measure for each subject.
