  1. Secondary School Strategy Managers November 26th & 29th 2007

  2. Objectives • To review 2007 KS3 and GCSE results • To know the English, mathematics, science and ICT priorities up to end of March 08 • Improving teaching and learning • Intervention • Inclusion Development Programme • To outline the 2008-2009 Standards Fund

  3. Increase in the proportion achieving English, Maths, Science, and English and Maths A*-C, but a fall again in MFL. Note: From 2005 onwards, figures relate to pupils at the end of KS4 rather than at age 15

  4. 2008 PSA target achieved one year early. Progress made on 5+ A*-C inc EN+MA

  5. GCSE West Midlands

  6. Gender gap narrowed slightly since 2005, but not significantly over time

  7. Signs of the gender gap widening for 5+ A*-C including English and mathematics

  8. Some improvement including English and mathematics, but new PSA target sets a challenging trajectory

  9. Reduction in schools below30% 5+ A*-C floor target

  10. … and similarly when indicator includes English and mathematics In 1997 51% of schools had less than 30% achieving 5+ A*-C inc E+M. In 2007 this had fallen to 22% of schools

  11. Similar rate of increase across all levels of deprivation Schools with more than 50% FSM have increased by 2.5 ppts compared to an increase of only 0.7 ppts in schools with less than 5% FSM, however schools with 35-50% FSM have only increased by 1.6ppts

  12. …. and similarly when English and mathematics are included

  13. KS3 Secondary LA and school targets For 2009, targets to be set at KS3: • Proportion of 14 yr olds reaching level 5+ in both English and mathematics* • Proportion of 14 yr olds reaching level 5+ in science* • Proportion of 14 yr olds making 2 levels progress in English* • Proportion of 14 yr olds making 2 levels progress in mathematics* • Attendance: to reduce persistent absence. • * For each of these targets LAs will be required to provide a breakdown by minority ethnic group. The groups have been revised to include Gypsy/Roma and Travellers of Irish Heritage.

  14. KS4 Secondary LA and school targets For 2009, targets to be set at KS4 • Proportion of pupils achieving 5 A*- C grades or equiv incl GCSE English and mathematics* • Proportion of pupils making 2 levels progress in English* • Proportion of pupils making 2 levels progress in mathematics* • Children in care: to increase the proportion achieving 5 A*-C grades at GCSE and equiv incl GCSE English and mathematics • Attendance: to reduce persistent absence • *For each of these targets LAs will be required to provide a breakdown by minority ethnic group. The groups have been revised to include Gypsy/Roma and Travellers of Irish Heritage.

  15. KS3 NC level GCSE grade 8 A* (in MA) 7 A (and A* in EN) 6 B 5 C 4 D 3 E 2 F Below level 2 G KS3 to KS4 progress measures

  16. 2011 PSA targets

  17. Two levels progress

  18. English, mathematics, ICT and science priorities

  19. ICT - priorities Universal • use of performance data to review and shape improvement plans with a particular focus on conversion rates from KS3 to KS4 and residual performance • collaborative improvement activity focused on improved planning and pedagogy • attendance at spring term SLDM to access SNS support and guidance, be briefed on the renewed ICT Framework , and benefit from local networking of effective approaches

  20. ICT - priorities TARGETED: • sharply focused, regularly evaluated consultant support agreements • Training and support for functional skills pilot centres • Improved schemes of work, teaching, learning and coursework for new key stage 4 qualifications

  21. Science quiz • What do these terms mean? • SIIF • STEM • HSW • Triple science • Level 6+ entitlement • What counts for reporting 2 GCSE sciences?

  22. Science priorities – universal 1. Supporting appropriate wave 1, 2 & 3 intervention through: • use of data (including using RAISEonline and test analysis ) and AfL strategies to target underperforming groups throughout year 7 – 11; • use of data to devise curriculum targets which are used in teaching; • explicit teaching of scientific enquiry/How Science Works to improve progression between KS3 and 4. 2. Attendance at spring termSLDM to access SNS support and guidance, be briefed on the renewed Science Framework, to enable effective dissemination of key messages to science staff.

  23. Science priorities – targeted Use data analysis and consultancy support to make appropriate targeted intervention in schools to: • improve teachers’ use of the teaching and learning approaches to address the weakness and misconceptions shown in the 2007 national test and GCSEs; • strengthen subject leader skills in monitoring and planning for intervention of underperforming groups.

  24. SIIF priorities – targeted • For pilot LAs to increase level 6+ attainment and GCSE A*-B by trialling and evaluating materials in schools on: • improving teachers’ knowledge and use of progression strategies through and between KS3 and KS4; • improving teachers’ knowledge and use of effective interactive teaching including practical work. • LAs contributing to collection of case studies of effective practice to support progression to post 16 sciences

  25. Supporting Intervention

  26. The Inclusion Development Programme

  27. National Strategies SEN Plan 2007-8 To improve the progress and attainment of pupils at risk of underperforming. Common priorities for all cross phase inclusion programmes: Mainstreaming LA alignment Focus on school improvement and capacity building Leading practice – leading teachers Three waves of intervention

  28. Key Aims of IDP • Improve outcomes for pupils and narrow gaps • Promote early recognition and intervention • Increase the confidence of all practitioners • Support schools and settings to become more effective at strategic approaches to support and intervention

  29. IDP: areas of focus • Speech, Language and Communication • Dyslexia • Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD) • Behavioural, Emotional and Social Difficulties (BESD)

  30. Specific aims of the initial focus of the IDP • Brief teachers and others in the workforce about early signs of: • Dyslexia • Other Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) • Speech Language and Communication Needs (SLCN) • Provide information on teaching and learning strategies and approaches known to be effective

  31. The Audience • Mainstream practitioners in EYFS / schools and settings • Mainstream primary teachers and TAs • Mainstream secondary teachers and TAs • Head Teachers and senior leadership teams

  32. Resources • Via web and interactive DVD • Resources for Primary and Secondary are on the same DVD • Resources for ITT in March 2007
