Executive Summary

Title: Enhancing the Utility of Pastoral Data in Schools

Schools collect a lot of pastoral data, but handling it can be quite demanding due to the use of different systems for data entry. This often leads to inefficiencies and makes it harder for teachers to use this information effectively.

To address this, we propose a more unified approach across all schools for managing data, alongside the introduction of 'data champions'. These data champions are experts in understanding and using data, and they will help train and support all staff in using data more effectively. Their role is crucial in helping teachers quickly identify students who may need extra support or are showing signs of behavioural issues.

Additionally, by combining pastoral data with other important information like attendance, nurse visits, and student behaviour records, schools can improve how they intervene and support students. We also suggest updating our behaviour points system to categorize behaviours into five levels of severity. This will allow teachers to use specific strategies that are best suited to each situation, rather than using the same approach for all.

This plan aims to make data easier to manage and use, leading to better support for students and more effective teaching outcomes.
