Self Evaluation Made Simple

Course date: 19th Sep 2024

This one-day face-to-face programme aims to help heads and senior leaders understand the self-evaluation process and prepare them for the new Estyn Framework 2024-2030. Although Estyn encourages heads and senior leaders to undertake peer inspection training, this can be an intense experience. Alternatively, self-evaluation made simple will equip primary school leaders with the knowledge to be Inspection-ready and have a highly effective and collaborative system for the self-evaluation cycle. Changes will be discussed, and the latest information from the ‘what’ and ‘how’ Estyn documents will be discussed. You will understand the latest inspection processes, enabling you to plan for and manage an inspection within your setting.

By the end of the day, you will leave with many myths busted and practical strategies to help you through your inspection. You will feel equipped and ready to face the challenges of the inspection process.

This course has expired.

The Course Objectives include:

What are the key drivers impacting the inspection process currently?
What is expected of me as a nominee during an inspection?
How can I more effectively manage my inspection and the team?
Practical and simple things to do to be more inspection-ready.

Consider how an inspection team collects and evaluates the evidence to secure a judgement, looking in-depth at:

IA 1 Teaching and Learning
IA 2 Well-being, care support and guidance
IA 3 Leading and improving

Discuss what the key foci will be for each of these inspection areas. You will also receive a copy of the self-evaluation made simple document (available separately for £40 plus VAT).
