How
to Complete & Update Your 'New SEF'
Ensure Your SEF is Clear & Accurate:
Avoid Inspection Pitfalls
FAO All Nursery, Primary,
Secondary, All-through Mainstream, Special Schools and PRUs:
As you'll be aware, the
new SEF has greatly increased the risk of even good quality and otherwise effective
schools being placed into 'Notice to Improve' or 'Special Measures'. OFSTED's
new SEF requires a more rigorous self-evaluation than ever: if your Self-Evaluation
Form is not clear, 'sharply evaluative' or fails to identify areas for improvement
accurately… your school will be penalised by the inspectors.
The fact is, your SEF must
be accurate and up-to-date at all times. This will not only ensure your inspection
is correctly tailored, but also that inspectors do not begin your inspection
with doubts about the quality of your school's Leadership and Management and
its capacity to deliver Sustained Improvement.
Make
Sure Your SEF is Completed Correctly
- Control Your Inspection
- Get the Best Result for Your School:
