Bob Miller of Te Kete Hono explains how primary schools have downloaded progression data from Schooltalk to measure how many months a learner is from their expected level. Tracked over time this creates a powerful view of progress that celebrates acceleration regardless of the learner’s academic achievement level. Months from Expectation (MfE) Data can be analysed to allow teachers to assess their own impact across different groups. Learn how MfEs can be correlated with standardised data such as e-asTTle or PATs to support moderation of progressions. See also how MfEs can be analysed with non-achievement data such as attendance or surveys to support inquiries into the effect of these on progress and achievement. Learn too, about how AI is making it easier and easier to perform complex analysis that give even deeper insights.
Specialising in data analytics, Bob has developed innovative analysis tools designed to offer schools a comprehensive perspective on student progress and achievement. Currently, he is part of Te Kete Hono, an organisation dedicated to building powerful collaboration, driving educational improvement, and equity for all learners.
