Why is ‘Creating your Data Story’ training day invaluable to your school before your next Ofsted?

The key to a successful inspection is convincing Ofsted that you understand the strengths and weaknesses of the school highlighted in your Inspection Dashboard and RAISEonline reports, and that you have a plan on how to drive school improvement. They will be most interested in the positive impact of your actions, how you are sustaining and maintaining your strengths and how you are taking positive steps to improve weaknesses.

You need to evidence that the actions and strategies you have put in place to drive school improvement are having a positive impact. Once they are confident about your judgements and next step actions they will be convinced that you have the capacity to improve.

You also need to be sure your judgements and school improvement steps across each Key Stage, pupil group and subject across the board are correct. Creating your own school Data Story can help you to demonstrate this and communicate your strengths, successes and areas for development clearly and with confidence to Ofsted and all your key stakeholders.

Knowing, using and sharing your data proficiently as senior management team and across the school to drive school improvement will support the school to achieve good/outstanding leadership and management judgment.
