As a subject leader, a subject self-evaluation is a process that allows you to assess the effectiveness of your subject area across a period of time (usually an academic year). It typically includes analysing any pupil performance data available, gathering feedback from students and staff, evaluating the effectiveness of teaching and the resources available, and reviewing the curriculum. A key part of the self-evaluation is understanding it’s not just recalling what happened but highlighting the impact that subject leadership has had. We’ve included two fully editable word document templates for you to self evaluate your subject area: Self-Evaluation Form – Concise: a shorter form for making a broader evaluation. This is less time consuming and more useful when you already have a good understanding of your subject area in your setting. It can also be used when your subject area doesn’t require rapid improvement and just needs less invasive monitoring to keep it on track. Self-Evaluation Form – In-Depth: a longer form that covers the Ofsted grade descriptors and allows you to make an in-depth judgement about the current status of your subject area in your school. This is useful if you want to get to know your subject well, if you know you need to make rapid changes or if you believe your school will be inspected and you want to use this to bolster your confidence and understanding. Our full subject leader pack includes this and so much more. Visit honeyguide-sls.co.uk for further information.
