E N D
SWC Purpose of presentation: • Feedback on October Pilot • Reminder of data items January 2010 • Introduce HR MIS team • Introduce the Time Table • Launch Training Now!
Feedback - How the Pilot went: • For Richmond – very well 89% of schools returned data which was checked corrected and authorised by DCSF • Nationally – poor 38% of almost 22,000 schools taking part. • Congratulations to all the staff who have done so well working on this.
Benefits to Schools of new system 1 : • Both SWC and 618g are statutory returns • Jan 2010 will be the last 618G as a statutory return. • However, for LA’s who complete the SWC to the necessary standard the 618g will be waived. • Collect is available now, and remains open until the live census so work on this can be done, in advance.
Benefits to Schools of new system 2: • Ofsted Inspection : • “single central record” policy for safeguarding • Developing the children’s workforce (qualifications) ensuring qualified staff in children’s services • Option to record CRB data • School can add some other data items for their own use
Why do DCSF need the SWC? • DCSF currently hold very little information on workforce members at individual level. • Data is often out of date and in some cases inaccurate. • Aim to improve data collections to improve and monitor policy on staffing and teacher training (subject planning) • Will replace 5 other surveys, and is likely to expand in its role longer term.
