Beyond Small Classes — Dashboard

Who needs help, what drives outcomes, and whether smaller classes actually produce better results — 45 Primary 4 children, six weeks of data.

Who needs help, and in which subjects.

Intervention categories
How many children fall into each risk tier
Share needing help
Primary 4 children requiring intervention vs tracking fine
Subjects below the passing line
% of enrolled children scoring below 65 in each subject
Average April score by subject
Centre-wide mean across all Primary 4 children enrolled
Children by school and severity
Where the intervention caseload lives, by school of origin
Attendance rate by intervention category
Mean attendance in each risk tier — children who come don't always learn

Children who need named attention this month.

Urgent intervention list
Critical and At-Risk children — ranked by severity, with gap pattern
Score vs severity map
April score (x) vs severity (y). Larger dot = more subject gaps. Colour = tutor exposure.
Gap count distribution
How many subjects each child is below mastery in, stacked by category
Subject-by-subject view — urgent children
Each cell shows the April score in that subject. Green = mastered. Red = critical gap. Grey = not enrolled.
Attendance vs concern notes
Children who attend consistently but are still flagged — the classroom is the problem, not the child
Urgent cases by school
Which schools produce the most intervention cases

How teacher quality drives Primary 4 results.

Intervention mix by teacher exposure
Proportion of children in each category, grouped by which teachers they encounter
Share needing help — by exposure
Weak-teacher exposure: 100%. Strong: 14%. Neutral: 0%.
Average April score by exposure
Mean score across all enrolled subjects
March → April improvement
How much each cohort's scores moved across the two test cycles
Concern-note share
% of holistic teacher notes flagged as a concern, per exposure
Subject-level outcome by exposure
Mean score in each subject, split by the teacher cohort each child was exposed to

Do smaller classes actually produce better results?

Class size distribution
Average class size each child is exposed to. The vertical line is the promised 10-child cap.
April score vs class size
Each point is one child. Colour = tutor exposure. Trend line shows no meaningful effect of size on score.
Improvement vs class size
March → April delta plotted against class size — still no size effect
Cap-compliant vs cap-breached cohorts
Mean April score, mean improvement, and % below mastery — grouped by whether the child's classes respect the 10-child cap
Intervention rate by class-size bucket
% of children needing help in each class-size range
Within-exposure: size vs score
The class-size effect compared within each tutor cohort — flat inside each.
