This easy to use and fully editable word document outlines the actions and intended milestones for improvement in your subject area, as well as considerations such as potential cost implications, staff members, issues and how you plan to monitor and evaluate the progress of each action.

A subject leader skills and confidence audit is a self-reflective tool used to assess your own confidence and ability to lead, manage and teach a particular subject. The audit involves a series of questions and statements related to different aspects of subject leadership, such as curriculum planning, assessment, teaching and professional development. This audit will help you to evaluate the quality of education through curriculum intent, implementation and impact, as well as Ofsted’s key judgement areas of personal development and leadership and management. On the audit form, you’re asked to rate your level of confidence in each area. This allows you to identify areas where you may need additional support or professional development in order to improve your leadership and teaching skills.
