Has anyone received in/out county data for Kent Test?
Has anyone yet got a response to a FOI request for the numbers of children in and out of county on Kent test scores from KCC?

Not yet, but did get my raw score req back today, so hopefully soon

Due to the number of FOI requests, KCC have put the data on their website, school by school. It is on the page with the Jent test results info.

Very interesting info but not sure they are allowed to do that as in some schools individual children can be identified.Ladymuck wrote:Due to the number of FOI requests, KCC have put the data on their website, school by school. It is on the page with the Jent test results info.
I'm sure individual scores should be confidential information.

Wow, great level of detail, but agree that it could be tricky re individual scores.
It is however, very useful to guage if you are in with a chance for super selective, as you can filter out certain districts. It has left me feeling more positive about our selection and our DS's score! Roll on 2nd March...

It is also really interesting to see on the different spreadsheets, the lowest "assessed for grammar" score is 207 and the highest "assessed for high school" score is 381
1495 children scored over 320 and were not assessed as suitable for grammar!
(sorry, I love looking at data like this! )

I noticed that too - you've got to feel sorry for the child who got 381 and didn't pass. Surely that should have warranted a head teacher appeal!Mumof2boyskent wrote:It is also really interesting to see on the different spreadsheets, the lowest "assessed for grammer" score is 207 and the highest "assessed for high school" score is 381

I saw one FoI recently that had data by postcode. They may as well have written the childs name against it.
I guess this year may be a bit exceptional due to the test change and parents wanting a better gauge of scores.
