Gateway usage in 60 days
Looking at the first 60 days of Gateway
usage we can start to draw some tentative
conclusions which focus on:
Gender
Ability/Prior Attainment
Effort

Revision Gateway Usage
228 year 11 students regularly accessed the revision gateway up until study leave.
Splitting the students into 3 equal thirds and averaging their usage is interesting!
76 Students viewed 144 pages each on average
76 Students viewed 277 pages each on average
76 students viewed 562 pages each on average.

Revision Gateway Usage
From this we can identify three types of
users.
Very High Users
High Users
Moderate Users

Gender and Usage
Very High Users 80% are boys 20% Girls
High Users 60% are boys 40% Girls
Moderate Users 77% are girls 23% boys

Prior Attainment and Usage
Very High Users Have an average 555 in
their KS3 SATs
High Users Have an average 655 in their KS3 SATs
Moderate Users Have an average 665 in their KS3 SATs

Effort Grades and Usage

Overall we can start to draw a conclusion that boys on the c/d borderline are the heaviest users of the gateway.
