Synopsis

School self evaluation is at the heart of management and governance, and plays a major role in Ofsted inspections. But how can governors get to grips with the key areas in which a school is expected to perform? This book takes what inspectors examine so as to show just what governors should be looking at and how. It provides governors with guidance on: the four areas of inspection the judgements that inspectors make, using the Ofsted descriptors as benchmarks the use of RAISEonline and Fischer Family Trust data, helping them concentrate on the key indicators monitoring how the school attempts to "close the gap" for particular groups of pupils useful questions to ask to explore what the information means for their schools, and how they can expect their schools to react.
