Gain Valuable Insights to drive School Improvement

The KS2 SATs provide annual, detailed insights into student strengths and weaknesses, with results broken down by individual questions. These standardized, independently marked assessments offer valuable data for improving school performance.

Our Question Level Analysis aggregates this assessment data by topics and cohorts, rather than individual answers, revealing patterns that can drive meaningful change across your school.

“Thank you ever so much for the QLA reports. The service we have received from yourselves & the attention to detail have been fantastic. We have found the reports to be incredibly useful & they are helping us to shape our school improvement priorities for the coming year.”

Headteacher, Holy Trinity CE Junior School, Ripon

Your Detailed Analysis will include..

A Full Summary

A clear starting point – focussing in on the headlines and points for you to focus on as the deeper analysis continues. For example, did you know that 85% of the total possible marks usually come from a small number of topics?

Topic Insight

We divide up the questions into bespoke Topics. Deep Dive into each subject to see where teaching could be improved and implement changes to your curriculum. Even small changes can significantly improve school results.

Question Type

Is there one particular question type which is a problem to your pupils? Update your curriculum to include more practice and instruction in areas where pupils struggle or more challenge in areas where pupils excel.

Analysis of every Cohort

We break the results down into your various cohorts – gender, disadvantaged, SEN, EAL and more. Focus on different cohorts across your school to find areas where you can make changes that could make a substantial difference.

Individual Pupil Profiles

Our pupil profiles allow you to see where marks were lost and gained and provide detailed evidence to guide your search for improvements across the school.

What can you do with the Results?

Analysing your KS2 SATs results can provide several valuable insights…

1. Identify Strengths and Weaknesses across your school: Determine which topics students excel in and where they struggle. For example, if many students perform well in reading but poorly in math, you can focus on improving math instruction. You can then set specific and achievable targets for improvement in this area – implementing the 1% principle in your school.
2. Curriculum Adjustments: Evaluate the effectiveness of teaching methods and make informed decisions about curriculum changes. Consistent gaps across a cohort may indicate areas where teaching strategies need adjustment. You can use the evidence here to find areas where you can make changes that could make a substantial difference.
3. Target Interventions for Future Students: Develop targeted interventions for students or cohorts in the future who need additional support. Our Individual pupil profiles can highlight specific areas for improvement, allowing for personalised learning plans for future students.
4. Professional Growth for your Staff: This comprehensive analysis will provide evidence for your Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programmes and drive school improvement and foster a culture of continuous learning. Identify areas where teachers may need additional training or resources to improve their teaching strategies.
5. Create Evidence of Improvement for Ofsted: To ensure these incremental changes align with Ofsted standards, it’s crucial to integrate them into your school development plan. Ofsted’s key areas for improvement often include enhancing the quality of teaching, learning, and assessment. By applying the 1% principle, schools can make steady progress in these areas, ultimately leading to outstanding provision.
6. School Development Planning: Incorporating the 1% principle into your school development planning can lead to remarkable improvements over time. This approach focuses on making small, consistent changes that compound to create significant results. By integrating these insights into your school improvement plans, you can ensure that the benefits are felt not just in individual classrooms but across the entire school.

80% of schools who used our Question Level Analysis consistently over three years have seen an increase in their attainment. By embracing the 1% Principle, schools can create a culture of continuous improvement, where every small step contributes to significant, long-term success. These small changes can help create a more dynamic, supportive, and efficient school environment.

You can read about one school in our Case Study – How QLA helped to Improve our Results. Here the QLA also helped them improve their Ofsted grade .

“We find the Question Level Analysis from DAISI invaluable at Seely Primary and Nursery School. In my role as deputy headteacher of a big school as well as assessment coordinator, there is no way I would have the time or capacity to complete QLA to the level and in the detail that the DAISI team do. They saved me days of work and the information this gives me allows us to develop whole school targets that we can show improved the attainment of our pupils.“

Deputy Headteacher, Nottingham

What have Schools Said about QLA Results?

“Fantastic and so simple to use. In addition, it would have taken us an inordinate length of time to produce anything quite like it… Thank you! In Ofsted speak Outstanding Best Value!!!”

Broadway Junior School, Sunderland

“I just wanted to say thank you for turning around the DAISI reports so quickly – it’s very much appreciated. Subject leaders and Raising Standards Leaders in each primary school are going to be able to use this information to inform teaching and learning opportunities , not just in Year 6, but across the school.  I’m sure they will be key in informing the focus areas for this year’s improvement plans.”

Peterborough Keys Trust

“DAISI SATs QLA is a wonderful product. It has not only saved me a lot of time but is clear and easy to understand. It is a resource I will share with our governors. I have also recommended it to other headteachers.”

Headteacher, The Butterwick Pinchbeck’s Endowed CofE Primary School

“After showing our Executive Headteacher the quality of the analysis you have provided, she has asked me to let you know how impressed we are with the analysis, including the speed we received it. We really appreciate the program you have developed to do this for our benefit. We could never have achieved the same depth of analysis with the equivalent cost of staff time.“

Assistant Headteacher, Gleadless Primary School, Sheffield

“I think they are a great tool and really help us to analyse our data in great detail. I have been telling everyone how good they are & how they have saved hours of work. This has allowed me to focus on how we can improve teaching and learning rather than spending time on the data analysis – a very welcome change.”

Headteacher, Captain Cook Primary School, Middlesbrough (James Cook Learning Trust)
