Renaissance Analytics' metrics for Star Reading and Star Maths include students who have taken a Star test and gotten a benchmark score in one of the school network screening windows set on the Renaissance site for the Multi-Academy Trust (not individual school sites). Only tests taken in a school network screening window are shown. If students have taken more than one test in a school network screening window, only the most recent test is included for the metrics. Note: Student Growth Percentile is calculated using different windows; see Student Growth Percentile below.
| Score/Metric | What It Shows |
| Students Assessed/Assessments Completed |
For the school network and schools, this shows how many students have taken at least one test in the school network screening window. For individual students, the Our Students and Student Profile dashboards show how many tests each student has taken in the window. |
| Star Proficiency Benchmark |
For the school network and schools, this shows the percentage of students who are at or above the school network benchmark minimum proficiency level on the Star assessment. |
| Star KS2 SATs Benchmark (Y2-6) |
For the school network and schools, this shows the percentage of students who are estimated to score at or above the KS2 SATs proficiency benchmark. For individual students, the Our Students and Student Profile dashboards show the student's most recent estimated benchmark level (with 1 being the lowest level). |
|
Student Growth Percentile |
For the school network and schools, this shows the percentage of students at or above typical growth for current Student Growth Percentile based on the students' earliest Autumn score and their latest score in the current SGP window. Student Growth Percentile windows are: Autumn: August 1 - November 30 Spring: December 1 - March 31 Summer: April 1 - July 31 Student Growth Percentiles will continue to change as students take tests outside the school network screening windows; if you want to compare proficiency and growth, take this into account as you choose when to do the comparison. Note: Star reports may use another window's test as a starting point, and they may use either window-specific Student Growth Percentiles or current Student Growth Percentiles. For more about Star and SGPs, see Student Growth Percentiles. For students, the Our Students and Student Profile dashboards show the current Student Growth Percentiles. |
| Reading Age (Our Students and Student Profile only) | The Our Students and Student Profile dashboard show the most recent Reading Age score for each student. |
In Explore, you can also get information on students' standards and strands mastery.
| Score/Metric | What It Shows |
| Standards Mastery | When you select Explore on a tile, in the Explore window, you can choose to view data by standard, which will show you the percentage of students who have achieved secure mastery (80-100% mastery) based on their Star test results. For more about how to see standards data, see Reviewing Data Over Time, by Standard, by Strand, or by Student Information/Characteristics (Explore). |
| Strands (see domain scores in Star reports) | Also in Explore, you can view data by strand to help you decide whether students may need additional instruction in specific areas. Explore shows you the number and percentage of students who have achieved secure mastery (80-100% mastery) on strands based on their Star test results. See Reviewing Data Over Time, by Standard, by Strand, or by Student Information/Characteristics (Explore). |
