ANALYTICS
TO DRIVE IMPROVEMENT
Being evidence-informed provides teachers, leaders and schools with information to analyse impacts and consider what next steps are needed. Having relevant, timely data is essential to ensuring there are positive outcomes for learners.
Granular - Teachers utilise the granular level of progressions to inform what learning is needed at the current time and for who
Global - A global view of progress information is used to reflect on and consider if each child is making the right amount of progress across a year
For leaders within a school, data plays an important role in the overall strategic decisions and direction a school may take, for example, investment or allocation of resources, structure of professional development and design of interventions.
For a Community of Learning/Kahui Ako, data is used in a similar way to achieve alignment and coherence across a community of schools.
