What is Alis?
*Please note, this is Cambridge Centre for Evaluation & Monitoring's KS5 baseline assessment solution. For other age groups, take a look at ASPECTS (3-4), BASE (4-5), Cambridge Primary Insights (5-11), MidYIS (11-14), or Yellis (14-16).
Alis is an adaptive baseline assessment which empowers schools to unlock the full potential of students.
Specific to Key Stage 5, Alis helps you gauge an objective perspective of students’ strengths and weaknesses and see how they are likely to perform at A Level.
Why do schools choose Alis?
- It provides nationally standardised scoring, comparing performance to national and independent school averages.
- Predictive data is generated from baseline test scores, and/or (I)GCSE results, informing how each student is likely to perform at A Level.
- Value-added reports highlight your school’s value adding resources which impact student achievement.
The assessment takes around 50 minutes.
Students are assessed in three key cognitive areas which research shows are linked to later academic outcomes:
- Vocabulary – word fluency and understanding
- Mathematics – logical thinking, manipulating numbers and numerical concepts
- Non-verbal – matching speed and accuracy, logical reasoning and diagrams
