• Do you feel that the Good you were awarded by Ofsted could have been an Outstanding?
• Did your report rather frustratingly describe the school as Good with some Outstanding features?

Being recognised as a Good school by Ofsted is a major achievement. However, many hard-working headteachers are left asking: What more do we have to do to be rated as Outstanding?

Take that extra step

From Good to Outstanding is a toolkit that can help any Good school to take that extra step. Through targeted guidance and innovative services, it helps schools focus on the key areas of:

• gathering evidence
• using performance data
• consulting pupils, parents and staff
• the Every Child Matters Agenda.

Four innovative tools

From Good to Outstanding contains:

• Ofsted – Taking Control – A pack of guidance that will help you to identify the issues that inspectors are likely to focus on in your school. You can then gather evidence in advance to make sure that you present your school in the best possible light.
• Using RAISEonline – A CD-ROM that will help all school leaders to make the best possible use of RAISEonline. How they use performance data is a key factor that sets Outstanding schools apart from the rest. Using RAISEonline will help you to find key data quickly, identify important issues and back up your view of the school’s performance.
• Evaluate – An online tool that collects the views of all staff, pupils, parents and governors and presents them in a convenient report, highlighting the most important findings. This data is invaluable for school improvement and to support the statements you make on your SEF.
• ECM Perceptions – Being able to demonstrate your school’s contribution to the Every Child Matters (ECM) agenda is paramount for Outstanding school status. ECM Perceptions provides a detailed analysis of pupils’ experiences in key areas and, crucially, provides a detailed report in the language and framework of the ECM outcomes.
