Analysing Data for School Improvement (Birmingham)
Why is this conference relevant
All schools are data rich. Outstanding schools confidently collect and analyse their data, and make timely decisions and effective interventions. According to Ofsted, in “schools judged satisfactory [data] is not always used efficiently to intervene and support pupils who are falling behind”. Turning a wealth of data into meaningful interventions that drive whole school improvement and increase pupil attainment is a proven route to Outstanding status.
In Outstanding schools, expertise in data analysis isn’t with one colleague. How can you be sure that you, and your entire staff, are accessing and engaging with the right data to make the right interventions that drive whole school improvement?
