June 2012 Nov 2012 March 2013 (Ed, OCR) June 2013 ….?
Who will be entered? For what?

SoW – where next?
Ofsted
Satisfactory is no longer good enough New subject specific guidance for January 2012, no changes in Teaching and Learning (except for inadequate) If achievement grade is inadequate, then overall effectiveness will be inadequate Curriculum now sits under Leadership and Management
Achievement
Greater focus on how schools are narrowing gaps in attainment and progress between different groups of pupils and all pupils nationally Achievement of different groups of pupils, including those with disabilities and special needs remains at the heart of the judgement Learning and progress are key drivers of achievement, and will be considered together with attainment

Emphasis on Literacy, Numeracy & Communication Skills
What is happening in your school to ensure/promote literacy, numeracy and communications skills across the curriculum?
RAISEonline
Changes to RAISEonline mainly result from the 2010 schools White Paper: The Importance of Teaching. The major change is the removal of contextual value added (CVA) measures.
Other changes relate to: value added (VA) indicators expected progress reports Narrowing the gap reporting school context review target setting SEN/low attainers.
Unpicking L6
Two half days focusing on number & algebra and data handling Emphasis on levelness rather than passing an assessment – what makes a level 6? Encouraged schools to liaise with pupils’ Year 7 destination school Over 70 delegates attended so far
National Curriculum Update
Introduction of National Curriculum delayed until first teaching September 2014 (possibly staggered implementation) National Curriculum review need to align with ‘radical’ GCSE reforms
