At Etherley Lane Primary School, we evaluate the effectiveness of SEN provision to ensure that pupils receive the best support to meet their needs and as part of the Graduated Approach of Assess, Plan, Do and Review. We currently evaluate the effectiveness of SEN across the four broad areas of SEN provision in the following ways:
Communication and interaction (SLCN, ASC)
We use the assessment data provided by speech therapists as well as teaching and support staff to assess before and after any intervention to evaluate the impact of provision.
Cognition and learning (MLD, PMLD, SLD, SpLD)
We use the assessment data provided by teaching and support staff to assess before and after any intervention to evaluate the impact of provision.
Social, Emotional and Health Difficulties
We use data from CPOMs to assess the impact of provision. We can also assess through observations of pupils throughout the school day over a period of time.
Sensory and/or Physical Difficulties
We use the Fundamental Movement Programme to assess before and after any intervention to evaluate the impact of provision with Gross Motor Skills. In Fine Motor Skills we use handwriting evidence from before and after interventions to evaluate the impact of provision.
In addition to this, we also have the following in place:
- Robust evaluation of policy and practice
- Book scrutinies
- SENCO/SLT/Governor monitoring
- Learning walks
- Performance management
- Other
