Lucy Crawford – Product Manager Interventions

Background of Interventions What areas are we trying to cover with this work? The future of recording Interventions in SIMS will span across any area where schools offer extra activities for pupils/students above and beyond normal teaching Some of these areas that we are hoping to link are: SEN, G&T, Pupil Premium

Challenges with tracking Interventions Provisioning multiple students for support Understand how each intervention has had an effect performance indicators Track which interventions are most effective Track cost vs impact Record interventions across multiple areas in one place

Challenges with tracking Interventions Things that interventions should do that are currently difficult Have pre-defined reports on interventions Record start and end and target points for interventions Add evidence to interventions Track interventions against whole school objectives

Areas related to SIMS Interventions Conduct Behaviour Achievement SEN Statuses Need types SEN Provisions Attendance Minutes late Unexplained absences % Attendance G&T Achievements Extra curricular activities Assessment Overall grades Grades in individual subjects Funding Pupil Premium – disadvantaged pupils SEN funding School budget Reporting Individual reports Funding reports Comparison reports Interventi ons

Where we are planning on heading with Interventions Reporting Filter Assessment Manager Marksheets by Interventions Bring Interventions into Discover Widgets on homepage and STV Quick report on which students have which Interventions Interventions vs cost Interventions vs efficacy Widget for staff to easily find which students they are helping with their interventions

Reporting An ability to filter assessment manager screen by interventions Report on which interventions students have had on which dates and what was recorded against them Basic report on costs Include fields in reporting dictionary Report on interventions compared to attendance/behaviour/achievement/conduct Ability to filter Homepage widgets by intervention group Student teacher view interventions widget(s)
