CPD Lead | Teaching and Learning Coach | Teaching Mentor Application Covering Letter

(0)
In this resource, you will find a 4 page example teacher coach/teaching mentor/CPD lead application letter or supporting statement. These are usually roles which lead on coaching teachers and offering teaching and learning support for staff within school and are often internal positions. These may also be staff who lead on CPD, who audit CPD needs within school and work as a team with the SLT link for learning and teaching. This letter is useful if you are applying for any of these roles and should give you a great starting point. This resource is full of ideas for your own letter and is a great base for writing your own application. I always recommend making sure your own letter fits descriptions for roles and never send a blanket letter to schools or for internal positions.

Using Data as a SENCo SENCO | Data Analysis | Attendance Attainment Behaviour

(0)
In this 6 page resource, I explore how data interlinks with the role of SENCo, including the type of data you may collect/interact with as a SENCo, how you can successfully gather data and how to best analyse student data in the role to maximise the support you can provide students to help them progress. This resource also covers, in detail, suggestions/tips and processes for analysing behaviour, attainment and attendance data as a SENCo. This resource is intended for new or training SENCos but may also act as a useful refresher for existing SENCos. Please note: this resource does not claim to be an exhaustive list of techniques for analysis but is a well developed and thorough consideration of how best to use data in the role of SENCo.
