Subject Specifics: Notes that PTM (Maths) relies heavily on English literacy for word problems, while PTE (English) tests technical grammar. 3. Decoding Scores: Visualizes the Stanine Bell Curve (1-9). Clarifies that scores are NOT percentages: Stanine 5 = UK Average, Stanine 7+ = Top 23%. 4. The Analysis: Shows how schools check for an 'Attainment Gap' by comparing GL Scores (Current Performance) against CAT4 Scores (Potential) to flag underperformance.
