How PpiT can contribute to school improvement
Because PpiT involves teachers, is easy to use and links with intervention, it helps ensure that tracking has an impact on pupil progress.
The user section in the Downloads page, which is available to licencees, has some very useful guidance based on practical experience, of how to use PpiT effectively to improve assessment and tracking so that it contributes to raising achievement and attainment.
PpiT, school self evaluation and Ofsted!
PpiT provides for each year the following information that is invaluable to self evaluation:
- How effective intervention has been (by showing the progress made by pupils on intervention programmes)
- The number of sub-levels progress made by all pupils or different groups across each term, year and key stage
- Data showing whether attainment of individuals, classes and groups such as vulnerable pupils is at or above expected levels and whether they are making expected progress
- The relation of targets to national expectations for individuals, classes, cohorts and different groups
- The percentages of pupils exceeding, meeting and not meeting targets
- Average point scores for subjects and groups of pupils
- Progress across the Early Years Foundation Stage
It does this in the form of easily produced:
- Progress charts (similar to those recommended in DCSF's 'Improving Schools Programme')
- Graphs
- Summary tables of data
These data provide an up-to-date picture of attainment, achievement and progress for groups of pupils, cohorts and the whole school, complementing and adding considerably to the data contained in RAISEonline.
The latest 2009 Framework makes such information more important than ever. PpiT is ideal for providing the data on attainment and achievement needed for the revised SEF.
