How do you get hard data to evaluate Portage?

Hi

Every one knows that Portage makes a difference. But how do you demonstrate that apart from saying on starting Portage he was like this xxxxx and on finishing he was xxxxx.

I need to revise how Portage is evaluated in terms of hard data/statistics not anecdotal comments. Looking for ideas.

  • Do you still count goals and convert to a % of number set vs number achieved?
  • Do you colour in blocks and add them up?
  • Do you use something like Tapestry or steps on the EYFS
  • Or do PVs place the child on a developmental scale/graph of functioning level before and after?

Any ideas welcome
