How will we know that our provision is effective?

 

Monitoring progress is an integral part of teaching and leadership within St Martin’s Primary School.  Parents/carers, pupils and staff are involved in reviewing the impact of interventions for learners with SEN.  We follow the ‘assess, plan, do, review’ model and ensure that parents/carers and children are involved in this process.  Before any additional provision is selected to help a child, the SENCO, Teacher and learner, agree what they expect to be different following this intervention.  A baseline will also be recorded, which can be used to compare the impact of the provision.

 

Children, Parents/carers and their Teaching and Support Staff will be directly involved in reviewing progress.  This review will usually be built into the intervention itself, but for pupils with higher levels of need it can be a formal meeting held at least once a term, where we all discuss progress and next steps.  If a learner has an Education Health and Care Plan (EHC plan,) the same termly review conversations take place, but the EHC plan will also be formally reviewed annually.

 

The SENCO collates the impact data of interventions, to ensure that we are only using interventions that work. 

 

Progress data of all learners is collated from the whole school and monitored by Teachers, Senior Leaders and Governors
