Maps or Management?

Provision Maps?

or Provision Management ?

Provision mapping takes into account the full scope of provision, including high quality, whole class teaching, guided and group work and individual interventions in order to identify and overcome potential barriers to learning and meet the needs of all pupils within and beyond the school setting. (DfE definition)

Provision Management is a strategic integrated system of multi-layered maps that interfaces with the school improvement cycle to provide governors/trustees, senior leaders, staff and families with relevant data about:• What the school offers and how effective it is• Where there are gaps in provision• Analysis of cost and impact for individuals, as well as

groups of learners

The purpose of the local offer is to enable parents and young people to see more clearly what services are available in their area and how to access them. The offer will include provision from birth to 25, across education, health and social care and should be developed in conjunction with children and young people, parents and carers, and local services, including schools, colleges, health and social care agencies.

Effect vs. effort and input

#3 Outcomes-based Accountability (OBA)

Quantity data Quality data

How much did we deliver?

Input effort How well did we deliver?

How much change did we produce?

Output effect

What quality of change/effect did we

produce?

Moving to OBA• Agreed hierarchy of terms –

benchmarks, targets, outcomes by agencies

• Capacity building and training essential – will cost more initially

• Systematic training for integrated multi-agency work

• Pooling of budgets Resource Allocation

Systems (RAS) Aspiration for ‘integrated approach’ to work: pooled

budgets

#3 OBA“Money is short and

each service changing just by 1% we can

collectively generate 10% change”

Locality

•Population accountability links to Local Offer

Provider

•Performance accountability relates to additional resources requested i.e. what difference it will make.

Change is on the horizon... Use every opportunity to up-date/develop staff/ in-house approach

Reflect & evaluate on your current Provision Management approach (process/system/output)

Have a clear vision of where you want to lead your setting

Consider 3 elements of evidence potentially required for future EHCPs (Triangulation of in-house data, financial statements & expected outcomes)
