During the time at your school, our English adviser will meet with the leadership team to ascertain expectations and if there is a key area of focus (GD pupils, SEND pupils, Pupil Premium pupils etc), before embarking upon a focussed book and planning trawl to review if the expectations are being met – this can be completed alongside leaders, or independently. The day will conclude through a feedback session to the school leaders, with a written report provided upon request.
To find out more about how external book and planning trawls can be built into your monitoring programme, simply complete the form below:
