Camau Nesaf Next Steps Mân welliannau - Marginal gains Mireinio - Refining Manylion - Details Cyflymder - Pace Ffocws - Focus Dadansoddi - Analysis Cydweithredu - Collaboration Gwerthuso - Evaluation The main messages emerging from our analysis of data, self evaluation and feedback from key stakeholders is – Keep going – you are doing the right things, We are having an impact on learner outcomes and sustaining improvement where it is needed. But the road is a long one with further improvements required, impacting ultimately on learner life chances. Narrative – we are refining and focusing now on key areas of need, recognising that we have areas of weakness to taregt, but also that some of our schools have reached a ceiling/ or close to that ceiling and that the challenge is to maintain and sustain the work/ outcomes. I refer to marginal gains and we have had to make some tweaks to graphs ect to show impact as the gains are on occasion small but important Clear instructions so we will cover ..... Main issues arising from data ( me to include more than one year because better and fuler picture) How does this link to our plans & national priorities – i hope that this will come through How do we plan for and respond to LA needs On occasion I will ask colleagues to talk through the slides – generally you should find that we come back to these themes noted here throughout the short presentation
