GL-Assessment Analysis
What the scores mean
Raw Scores – How many questions did the child/group
answer correctly?
Standard Age Scores or Standardised Score – attainment in
relation to national sample, where 100 is the national
average
Percentile – the percentage of pupils in the national sample
who scored at the same level or below that of the pupil’s
score
Stanine – reduces national attainment to a 1 to 9 scale
9 is highest scoring and 1 is lowest scoring
Progress Scores – are only available for pupils who have had
their previous test marked

Intervention
• Think of a skill that you have that was difficult
for you to learn.
• What helped you to overcome this barrier to
learning?
Effective Interventions
Effective interventions ‘personalise learning’ by
matching provision to meet children’s individual
needs and quicken the pace of leaning for those
with literacy difficulties, thus narrowing the
attainment gap with their typically developing peers.
Identifying and Teaching Children
and Young People with Dyslexia
and Literacy difficulties.

Evaluation
Please include comment and statistics on the following,
per school:
• total number of classes supported (breakdown by year group)
• total number of pupils supported (breakdown by in-class support and
withdrawal)
• nature of support provided to pupils
• quantitative data on pupil improvement as a result of your support
• total number of teachers supported
• nature of support provided to teachers
• qualitative analysis of support provided by you to each school – how
did your involvement with pupils impact on their learning experiences?
What worked and why? How do you know? What problems did you
encounter and how were they overcome?
OFMDFM Signature Project
Models of support
• Withdrawal
• Small groups
• Team teaching
