SIMS Exams - Progress 8 score

[Heliosedu]

 

 

The PI report is apparently showing a higher value for some candidates progress 8 scores than would be expected based on thier results.

As an example a student achieving English Lang and Maths marks of B (double score of 12 each), has no eBacc results, but who's highest three grades in the open section were all B (6 points each) should have a total score of 42 (12+12+6+6+6). However the PI report shows a Progress 8 score of 47 (appears to be including C mark for Eng Lit).

Has anyone any experience of something similar happening? No response on Capita's site so far.

Are you sure they have no EBacc subjects - did they not do a Science qualification?

Also, currently English Lit is counted as one of the 'other 3' grades
