1 NGRT Reports School: Sample School Section: A, B, C, D Group: Class B2 No. Students: 9 New Group Reading Test Level 3A Section A - Student Listing This report lists the results for each student from the selected group of students who took the test. Scores for each student are shown including Standard Age Score (SAS), Stanine, National Percentile Rank, Group Rank, Raw Score and Reading Age. This section also shows the estimated National Curriculum Reading levels in English. Some of the levels are split into three categories (C,B and A) with A denoting the highest and C the lowest category within a level. SASs cover a wide range (from 59 to 141) and this range can be subdivided into nine standard bands called stanines (from 'standard nines') which some people find are a convenient shorthand form of SAS. It should be remembered that some detail has been lost in grouping the scores into Stanines; SASs are a more precise measure. National Percentile Rank can help you assess your students in the context of the national picture. For example, a student achieving an NPR of 60 has a higher SAS than 60% of students in the standardisation sample (or, equivalently, 40% of students in the standardisation sample had an SAS higher than or equal to that of a student whose NPR is 60). Group Rank indicates a student's position relative only to the other students in your class/group, ranked according to SAS for each battery, or mean SAS (for example, 3rd out of 30). Section B - Group Demographic Comparison The table shows raw score and Standard Age Score (SAS) means and standard deviations for each group of students. The chart shows the average SAS scores (red dot) with 80% confidence bands (black horizontal line). If the black horizontal line (confidence band) overlaps the national '100' line the results for your group do not differ significantly from the national average. Confidence bands are not displayed for groups with less than 5 students as these are usually very wide with few students. The chart also shows the score distribution displayed as a box and whisker plot for each group of students. The sample graph shows an example for a group of students. Half the students have scores within the box range which in this example is between 90 and 110. It also shows that 5% of students have SAS scores below 80, 25% have scores below 90, 50% have scores below 105 (vertical black line), 75% below 110 and 95% below 125. Section C - Comparison of group and national Stanine distributions The bar chart shows the percentage of students that fall within certain ranges of scores. The score ranges on the graph and table are grouped into nine categories called Stanines. The chart and the table allows you to compare the score distribution of your groups with the national standardisation sample. The distribution of the national standardisation sample is a "normal" distribution. Section D - Analysis by reading age equivalent band This table shows the percentage of students by reading age equivalent bands.
