Setting personalised targets

Setting personalised targets

MEGs are set at the 75th percentile and based on the banded performance tables across the full suite of qualifications covered by Alps analysis. You can find full details of the MEGs in our Alps Guide, available form the Connect Homepage in Resources > Downloads.

Target setting software for KS4 and KS5 is available through Connect Data. Our article on Importing Data for Target Setting gives step by step instructions on how to produce MEGs from your prior attainment data.

In addition, with Connect Interactive, you will be able to track progress against these MEGs. You can also show your own internal target data, should you wish to.
