A scheme of work template.

Here is a simple log to help you maintain comprehensive records of everything your school is doing to support individual pupils to improve their attendance. You can also record your comments on how pupils and parents are engaging with the support, impact of the support on pupils attendance and changes to your strategy. You are also encouraged to make links to related documents such as minutes of meetings with parents. Your Senior Attendance Champion will love this! Comes in MS Word and Excel formats!

Formal Lesson Observation Template

Simple Learning Walk Template

The DfE guidance about relationship, sex and health education states that “…schools should ensure that their teaching is sensitive, age-appropriate, developmentally appropriate and delivered with reference to the law.” The guidance outlines what pupils should know by the end of primary and secondary school. We have developed these templates to help schools record what’s developmentally appropriate and what should be taught with sensitivity. This will be useful in developing a customised provision for pupils who have SEND or whose backgrounds make specific topics highly sensitive or even inappropriate. Schools should consider advice from relevant professionals when making these decisions.

A template to help you outline what you will cover during for every half term of the school year.

Annual Appraisal & Performance Review Template for Teachers

An HSE resources customised to include checks for compliance with paragraphs 11; 12; 25; 26; 27 of the independent school standards within the classroom. This is to be used by each teacher with in their classroom.

This template was adapted from The Key and amended to check 5 books at a time. Some of the focus questions have been removed, others amended slightly and new questions added to help evaluate the effectiveness of curriculum implementation. To be used in conjunction with the “Book Scrutiny Summary Template”

An HSE resources customised to include checks for compliance with paragraphs 11; 12; 25; 26; 27 of the independent school standards within the classroom. This is to be used by a person responsible for conducting Health & Safety checks across the whole school.

This template is for Independent Schools only. This checklist was originally compiled to help schools comply with standard 32 of the Education (Independent School Standards) Regulations 2014. Almost all the information that schools should provide or make available to various stakeholders can be published on a school website. And there are of course those documents that the school must publish on the website because some paragraphs under standard 32 say so. But the ISS regulations are not the only regulations that require schools to publish specific information on their websites therefore in version 2 we are adding to the checklist documents stipulated by other regulations.

If you have recently been inspected by Ofsted and it didn’t go well, my best advice for you is - get in touch with Marell Consulting Limited – we will help you bounce back. We have done it successfully for many schools. If, however, you prefer to address it on your own, here is a strategy you can follow to quickly recover from a poor inspection outcome. We offer you this because, according to Ofsted inspection statistics, it is more difficult to recover from a poor inspection outcome than it is to get things right the first time. Hope you find it useful. This guidance has just been updated (September 2024).
