The School Improvement Partnership Project utilises the idea of the LPUK Grade Predictor and how its concept could be used to develop European Grade Predictor Tools in other education systems to help support:
• Students choosing appropriate courses to study and so aid retention at Post-16
• Sharing practice and resources across education systems to help support student target setting and progress at Post-16
