Default How do I use a pivot table value to reference a worksheet

I am trying to get the sytax right on a function that gets a value from a
pivot table:

=GETPIVOTDATA((cell("contents",a5))!B9,"Total Student Capacity")

I need it to get the contents from A5 which is the name of a worksheet in
the file. I've looked through help and tried a bunch of different things
with no luck. I have a long list of names that I don't want to have to
manually type in the sheet name as I will be adding in more data later. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
