Inspection results linked to schools' use of data
School-contextual, pupil-level data analysis and research
can provide the most convincing evidence of a school's current performance.
Schools that are using 4Matrix are increasingly proving the significant
advantage they have when it comes to school inspection.

4Matrix was designed to help schools to analyse performance
variation in detail, and provide concrete measures
of Within School Variation* for every subject and group.
4Matrix can provide evidence of leadership quality
by showing the effectiveness of teaching and the extent
to which school priorities are orientated to tackling
inequality.
“4Matrix levels the playing field between schools with differing profiles of attainment by looking at comparative student achievement.” said Barbi Goulding, Principal of Paddington Academy - an early adopter of the 4Matrix system.
* 'Within School Variation' has been the subject
of an ongoing project at the National College for School
Leadership. According
to the DCSF, eliminating negative variation would raise
standards by 10%.
