Narrowi wing… e … early report October er 2 2019 Ensure e you can justify y your rationale: e: ( (it d does es n not m mea ean y you cannot h have a a two y yea ear k key ey s stage e 3…) “The school currently organises the curriculum with a two-year key stage 3, and three-year key stage 4. Leaders describe Year 9 as a ‘transition’ year. However, their rationale for the transition year is vague. In practice, it means that, in subjects such as history and geography, pupils finish key stage 3 and choose their GCSE options without studying all the content of the national curriculum. This denies them their entitlement to important area of knowledge. The school should review its curriculum and ensure that the model implemented next year fully delivers the national curriculum for key stage 3.”
Na National al C Curriculum 2014 014 Think ‘ ‘hea eads, hea earts, h hands’
Key w y wor ords/terms f from t the Quality ty of of Educ ducation ‘ n ‘Good’ C Criteri ria Implementation • Subject knowledge • Adapt teaching without unnecessarily elaborate individualised approaches • Help pupils to remember long term content (learn the curriculum?) • Use assessment well/reduce burdens on staff • Work given to pupils matches aims and is coherent/sequenced
Key w words ds/term rms f from t the he Good d Cri riteri ria Impact • Achieve well INCLUDING national tests and examinations • Next stage ready • Work ACROSS the curriculum is of good quality… ALL subjects matter
A high-quality curriculum is essential. Grades are only on one p part rt of the ‘impact’ of schooling
Perso sonal al D Development (Go Good) • The curriculum extends beyond the academic, vocational or technical and provides for pupils’ broader development, including their spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. • The curriculum and the school’s effective wider work support pupils to be confident, resilient and independent, and to develop strength of character. • Pupils know how to eat healthily, maintain an active lifestyle and keep physically and mentally healthy
Charac acter ( (DfE E 2019 019) Can n thi his be be seen i een in n stude udents? • the ability to remain motivated by long-term goals • overcoming and persevering through, and learning from, setbacks when encountered • positive moral attributes • acquisition of social confidence • an appreciation of the importance of long-term commitments
Key ey resource e to d dev evel elop y your o own thinking • Resilience • Critical Curiosity • Learning Relationships • Creativity
Do Does t thi his i ins nspire confide dence nce o or conce ncern y rn you? u? • A parent should be able to look at a league table and see that some schools have great results but a less favourable Ofsted report, or less good results but an ‘outstanding’ from Ofsted because the substance of what they are doing and the integrity with which they are doing it are there TES 21 st June 2019 (Spielman. A)
HMCI Report 201 t 2018/2019 ( (Jan 202 2020) ‘for accountability to work well, we need to ensure that the measures we use focus on the right things – in this case, the substance of education. When measures and processes focus narrowly on outputs such as exam results or testing, they can pull people’s focus away from the substance’
The he ins nspect ctio ion pr n proce cess-tw two t typ ypes of of i inspecti tion Section 5 • 2 day inspection-the full inspection handbook is used with a judgement for all categories- undertaken largely through deep dives • Full report
Section 8 • Good schools-now a very large proportion • Key question: Does the school remain good? • Focus on Quality of Education/safeguarding through deep dives along with ‘spotlight areas’. - High expectations/tackling behaviour -Gaming/off rolling -The extent to which the curriculum goes beyond the academic -Staff workload/protection from bullying/harassment • Converts to Section 5 if needed
Of Ofsted v d visits • Chance of being observed in PE is potentially increased but there is no such thing as a PE inspection • Celebrate your work with the inspector • More than likely a non-specialist-looking at how the intent is being implemented to create the desired impact • Deep dives…
Common ques n questions ns t tea eache chers a ask (myths?) • What should be in my Ofsted folder? • What should my Intent statement look like? • How much evidence should I produce? • What progression data do Ofsted want/look at? • What should my curriculum map/lesson plan look like? • What will the PE deep dive questions be?
Ex Example questi tions a s ask sked • "Why do you teach that?" • "Why do you teach it in that order/why do you teach it then (at that particular point)?“ • How do you know your students are making good progress?
Wha hat c can n we e do do? • A high quality curriculum ‘known’ by all parties is a great starting point • An unintended positive consequence of the current unprecedented situation is the thinking time we have
Key ques question: n: I Is your c ur cur urri ricu culum i incl nclus usive?
Suggested acti tions to o take • Map the whole curriculum experience (mind maps/flow diagrams?) • Deploy staff effectively • Raise the profile of PESSPA and work to ensure everybody understands the curriculum (including SLT/governors) • Invest in subject CPD (NQT/RQT could be asked) • INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL STAFF TO WORK TOGETHER • Help students get back to ‘normal’…. we may have fragile learners (and workforce) who need excitement and inspiration. • HELP THEM TO SMILE AGAIN
