Understand your school’s ‘climate’ better

Evaluate is an exciting online self-evaluation service specifically designed for headteachers and principals. Fully compatible with Ofsted self-evaluation requirements, Evaluate enables schools and colleges to appraise their present and potential effectiveness. This is done by assessing the school’s current levels of perceived performance against 11 key characteristics.

The full Evaluate service gathers, analyses and compellingly presents the perceptions of your key constituencies:

  • staff
  • governors
  • parents and carers
  • pupils.

A key tool for any headteacher or principal who is:

  • facing inspection in the next 18 months
  • new to the post and assessing their organisation’s current situation
  • driving forward school improvement
  • embarking on a new round of development planning
  • monitoring staff morale and building cohesion
  • keen to report on whole school/college issues to governors and parents/carers.

Evaluate can readily be used in conjunction with other systems designed to help you with self-evaluation, focusing as it does on canvassing views and providing vital evidence that is usually so very difficult to gather and use effectively.

The Evaluate system is designed to be both practical and manageable.

By repeating the process in the future, you can help to demonstrate that your actions have addressed weaknesses and increased effectiveness. Subsequent uses of the service are heavily discounted.
