Differential Attainment (DA)
Differential attainment is the unexplained variation in attainment between groups who share a protected characteristic and those who do not share the same characteristic, for example, ethnicity, gender and disability.
We have an array of resources on this webpage which may be helpful for educators and for trainees who want to understand more about DA and to close the gap in attainment.
The DA Toolkit can be adapted for local use, in conjunction with the podcasts we have created. In addition, the Professional Support Unit is running a series of workshops around DA in 2021.
