  1. Data Management “If you don’t know where you are going, how can you expect to get there?”- Basil. S. Walsh

  2. What are we going to consider? • The context for effective middle leadership data analysis • Self review and Trends • Becoming or maintaining good /excellent • Case studies to take back to school • Possible development activities • Start with the learner in mind

  3. Student voice “it’s good when we have--- • Stimulating learning experiences, • Access to course material electronically • Regular feed back and teaching that takes account of who we are and our progress against targets • The opportunity to improve prior to final assessments • Consistency • Personalised support.”

  4. Self review and the place of data management with department leaders

  5. OFSTED REPORT 25 • “Targets were based on overall GCSE prior attainment with an element of challenge added which helped students’ motivation, but were not so challenging as to be de-motivating.” • “Targets produced centrally by the institution were adjusted by individual subject teachers according to students’ prior attainment and aptitude in specific subjects.” • “Targets were reviewed and adjusted regularly in discussion with individual students in the light of their progress, which helped motivate them as they were involved in re-setting targets.”

  6. What do you need to consider to ensure good quality outcomes? • School systems - is yours set up so that your associate staff are providing what you need? • Timing of recording, reporting; frequency of this process • External partners – are your systems and timing common? • Manage data analysis effectively with department leaders to raise expectations and student achievement levels • Use data to inform students what they are doing well and where they need to improve

  7. Trends and comparisons • White paper – consistency needed between schools and college procedures • Some schools only analyse pass rate of students entered • Colleges compare the number who start the course with the number who finish – schools will be required to do this • Analyse ethnicity, SEN, deprivation, against targets set and numbers of those who start and finish the course

  8. Sources of information • Exam boards • Other providers who are partners • Learner Achievement Tracker (LAT) Note: “The DfE has agreed to put funding into the YPLA to run the LAT reports using 2010/11 data. The reports will be run in the autumn of 2011 and again in early 2012. Thereafter DfE has indicated that, as YPLA winds up, the production of the Learning Achievement Tracker (LAT) reports will move to the DfE Directorate. Further information will follow from the YPLA later in the month”

  9. Using data with subject leaders Supportive and developmental ethos • Values - mission statement • Senior leaders and experienced middle leaders can assist those with less experience • For excellence to exist at a consistent level systems need to be embedded

  10. Using data with subject leaders Self Review - Accountability • Trends over time • What the most recent analysis tells you • Context • Standards within elements of the course content

  11. Drilling down ‘Drilling down’ – individual teachers>lecturers> Groups of students>individual students • Prior attainment ( formula for setting targets) • Setting challenging yet achievable targets • Progress with targets • Interventions • Regular – timely - impact

  12. Supportive Systems

  13. Continuous professional development • Provide school based, preferably accredited, CPD on the role of the middle leader incorporating understanding and use of data for all key stages including post 16 • Ensure • Awareness/impact of subject changes at board level and the implications of these on middle leaders • Adequate lead in time • Development of new courses • Use of results to analyse how the different elements have been taught

  14. Good Practice incorporates--- • Effective Systems that support the middle leader • Effective self review that requires effective internal analysis with related subsequent improvement plans • Good use of AFL to ensure the learner is supported • Timely interventions with current cohorts

  15. Work shop activity 1. Scan the case studies- look at the Ofsted recommendations 2. Devise key actions required to have the maximum impact for good or better use of data with middle leaders 3. Record under these headings: • Whole school and college systems • Actions for Individual senior/middle leaders • Actions for teachers/lecturers

  16. “When it is obvious that goals cannot be reached don’t adjust the goals, adjust the action”Confucius
