What are the main things that leadership teams will need to focus on?
1.There is a heavier focus on literacy, particularly early reading and intervention in years seven and eight. Primaries in particular will want to increase their focus on key stage one. Systematic synthetic phonics will come to the fore if progress in reading is behind the norm. Literacy is described by Ofsted as the 'core duty' and 'highest priority' of Primary schools. 2. The self evaluation will need to show, more than ever, through data, evidence and analysis, - which groups of students are most at risk of falling behind;- what programmes, resources and interventions have been put in place to address this; and- what the evidence of success is. 3. The school's response to bullying is critical. There is a strong focus on bullying and the reaction to it. Schools will also want to be confident that they understand the views of pupils and parents about safety in school. Behaviour is more broadly of interest to the extent that it disrupts teaching and learning; attendance will be seen as a measure of safety and safeguarding. 4. School leaders will need to know comprehensively and precisely the quality of teachers and teaching in the school, and be able to demonstrate both the evidence for their judgements and the actions - in terms of training, coaching, resources and, ultimately, performance management - used to increase the proportion of good and outstanding lessons. 5. Contextual value added has been abandoned in favour of value added. Schools can present evidence on their intake and rates of progress. Inspectors will be asking: what are you doing to narrow the gap for those groups of your pupils who need it most? This will often be evidenced by higher rates of progress than the national average for pupils whose attainment is low on entry. 6. Leadership and management will essentially be judged by how well and how honestly they know their school; the ambition of their vision; and how effectively they have targetted effort and attention where it is needed most. 7. The breadth and quality of the curriculum will also be assessed under leadership and management and schools will have the opportunity - which feeds into overall effectiveness - to demonstrate their approach to the whole child. This will often be seen through the lens of how well they are equipping students for the next stage of school/life. Ofsted will not monitor compliance with the national curriculum; they are focused on quality and impact.
