Local / Sheffield Oct 06, 2018 - 05:49 PM GMTBy: N_Walayat
It's the time of the year when Sheffield's parents and students will have been busy visiting Sheffield's secondary school open days as they attempt to determine the best schools to apply to in the countdown to the 18th October online noon deadline and 31st October paper deadline for secondary school place applications with offers announced on 1st of March 2019. However, the school league tables can prove misleading as many of Sheffield's 38 or so secondary schools for whatever reason tend to exhibit volatility in performance from year to year. Therefore schools that currently rank high may rank lower in subsequent years i.e. by the time today's Year 7's progress to Year 11 GCSE exams.
Therefore a better methodology in the ranking of schools is to evaluate performance in terms of trend which is the focus of this video which concludes in trend forecasts for what to expect in future years as Year 7's progress onto GCSE exams.
