Evaluate My School – Not started your self evaluation yet? Try these ideas from SENDCos to help you manage it effectively

Diarise your completion date for when you will share it with others e.g. SEND Governor, Governor’s meeting, Inclusion Lead for MAT, staff meeting - Break it down: 

  • Decide which section/s you can realistically complete before the end of the summer term and focus on those Perhaps consider an area you think is a strength and an area you think needs more development
  • Book time in SLT meetings and staff meetings to discuss and complete appropriate sections e.g. identification and implementation for a staff meeting
  • For the statements think: Who is responsible for that? How well is that working? How do we know that (evidence)? What could make it even better?
  • Remember you don’t need to create anything to add as evidence as it should be things you already have in school.

The process may highlight some gaps that you can make part of your action plan to create e.g. parent voice from SEND parents isn’t routinely captured - Focus on the discussion of the statements and what would evidence it – you don’t have to upload all your evidence documents now - Make sure you are using this link to access the platform.
