An Introduction to the Cognitive Abilities Test (CAT4)

Derek Devine, International Consultant at GL Education, will provide an introduction to The Cognitive Abilities Test (CAT4). He will outline how the data from the assessment is used by leading schools to establish benchmarks, set realistic but challenging targets and identify underperformance.

Derek will also run a follow on data analysis session for schools participating in the ESSARP trial programme where schools that have assessed a cohort of their students with CAT4 will be guided in the evaluation of their data.

The agenda includes:

An introduction to CAT4: what is it and what does it offer?
