Subject Benchmarks
We can benchmark many subjects, however for some there is insufficient national data available from the DfE for this to be possible. This can be because the subject is new or due to low numbers of students taking a course nationally.
Where a subject does not have a benchmark, within your reports and Connect Interactive, you should see a value-added score but no Alps Grade in our analysis.
