• Building on self-evaluation
• Partnership working with the users of our services and other providers/scrutiny bodies
• Improvement and capacity building

HMIe Inspection
The ten principles provide a key point
of reference to inform the development
of any new approaches to inspection or review.
How well do young people learn and achieve?
1.1 Improvements in performance
2.1 Learners’ experiences
How well does the school support young people to
develop and learn?
5.1 Curriculum
5.3 Meeting learning needs
How well does the school improve the quality of its
work?
5.9 Improvement through self-evaluation
HMIe - three main questions and the five key indicators
QI 1.1 Improvements in performance
•Standards of attainment/progress over time
•Context of establishment
•Attainment/progress data trends
•Teaching, learning meeting needs
•Teacher expectations
•Overall quality of learner's achievement
• Development of the four capacities
• Development of personal and social skills
• Improvement in attainment/progress and achievement
• Delivering the Establishment's vision
• Impact of the school improvement plan
• Improvements in performance
•Standards of attainment/progress over time
• Attainment was very good in all key metrics
• To quote HMIe: "QAHS are performing better or much
better in all key metrics when considered against
their Comparator Schools." - Information from STACS. Projects linked to our Confucius
Classroom
•Data rich•Use of Access databases
•Tracking and Monitoring Performance
•Reporting to parents
•Data regularly imported into STACS
charts and table format
•Availability of data across the school for all staff
•Well developed system
Remembrance Day 2012
Purpose To obtain regular indications of individual pupil performance, subject performance, year group performance and whole school performance
Based uponPupil Updates (teacher judgements, class tests, etc.) Yearly Reporting (based on summative assessment)
Baseline data used to set targetsUse of Primary School AfE data (formerly PIPs) and S2 AfE On line testing (formerly SOSCA)
A Celebration of Christmas 2012
Monitoring is more than tracking academic progress
Achievement Awards (including School awards, Saltire Awards, ASDAN, Youth Achievement Awards, etc);
Praise Awards and Positive Referrals
Monitoring will include Pupil Profiling which will ultimately contain comments from all stakeholders
(pupils, parents, teachers and relevant agencies if applicable) regarding each pupil’s progress in a holistic
measure
Monitoring will include reference to attendance and behaviour
Each year should provide a full and frank appraisal of each pupil

"The real role of leadership in education … is not and
should not be command and control. The real role of
leadership is climate control, creating a climate of
possibility.”
Ken Robinson: How to escape education's death valley
"We need a pedagogy
free
from fear and focused
on the magic of children's
innate
quest for information
and understanding."
-- Sugata Mitra
"Making sure all our students get a great
education,
find a career that's fulfilling and rewarding, and
have a chance to live out their dreams …
wouldn't just make us a more successful
country — it would
also make us a more fair and just one.”
Bill Gates: Teachers need real feedback
"A colleague said to me one time, ‘They
don't pay me to
like the kids. They pay me to teach a
lesson.’ … I said
to her, ‘You know, kids don't learn from
people they
don't like.’”
Rita Pierson: Every kid needs a champion
"What kind of school would have the
teenagers
fighting to get in, not fighting to stay out?” Geoff Mulgan: A short intro to the Studio School
"In all high performing systems
there is
individualised learning, teachers
have very
high standards and responsibility
is
devolved to the school level."
Ken Robinson:
How to escape education's death
valley
"Death Valley is dormant not dead! The seeds
are there and are simply waiting for the
water."
Ken Robinson: How to escape education's
death valley
The next slides simply show a pictorial
representation of how
that simple effect of watering can indeed lead to
a blossoming of
potential and to wonderful opportunities that are
eagerly ceased
by pupils of all age and stages.
Give them a chance and wonder at what
transpires!

"Our approaches to inspection and review have increasingly placed more emphasis
on issues such as the extent to which an establishment or service has developed the
ability to self-evaluate and drive its own improvement. In inspections, we focus on
how an establishment is performing, the impact it is having on learners and the
quality of leadership and management in building capacity for improvement. We
carry out inspections taking account of the context and nature of the school, its
children and young people and their needs. "

"We need to have a broad general education that is consistently challenging. We do not need to search for magic bullets from other countries. Curriculum for Excellence is the right agenda. It is radical and has enjoyed political and professional support."

remain tight in the bud was more
painful than the risk it took to blossom."Anias Nin
