KS5 collaboration for VA estimates
Please could you do a data collab to estimate KS5 VA scores in a similar way to how you do P8 estimates at KS4? The VA value published for my 2024 cohort is vastly different to the Sisra estimate which was based on the 2019 data. It would be great if we could get estimates in the weeks after results day to help with our analysis, rather than having to wait for the official publication in February.

This is something that may be considered in the future, however the nature of the KS5 Value Added calculation is far more complex than that of Progress 8 as there are a lot more variables involved (for example, prior attainment is calculated up to 4 decimal places). This is the reason why it has not been available up to now, but as I say it will be something that may become available in the future.
