  • The Business of School Improvement
    the business of school improvement ACHIEVEMENT LANDSCAPE PICTURES: KEY STAGE 4 2018 At the end of each academic year, for the past eleven years, ECARDA has used the published national datasets to produce pictures of school achievement. The attached selection shows the achievement of schools in Lincolnshire and the Humber sub- region, including Doncaster, at the end of Key Stage 4. On one set of graphs, the horizontal axis refers to “attainment” and, since 2016, uses the published attainment 8 measure. On the other set, the horizontal axis refers to KS4 FSM. The vertical axis refers to “progress” and, since 2016, uses the published progress 8 measure. For 2018, we have used the adjusted progress 8 measure, which mitigates extreme effects. The labels in each of the chart quadrants are no more than indicators: Higher-than-average attainment with higher-than-average progress is indicated as accomplishing; Lower-than- average-attainment with higher-than-average progress is indicated as striving; Lower-than- average-progress with higher-than-average attainment is indicated as cruising; Lower-than- average attainment with lower-than-average progress is indicated as struggling. Those clustered around the intersection of the axes may be described as “in line with national averages”. Discounting those clustered around the centre/average, the proportion of schools or pupils which fall into each of these categories makes for an interesting comparison across local authority areas. See the ECARDA website for a presentation of this type of analysis in 2016. The final three pictures show the achievement landscape of all local authorities across the country with differing labelling to highlight differing characteristics.

  • Academies Overview - Progress Update on the Current State of Relationships and Challenges
    5 July 2017 To the Chair and Members of CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE’S OVERVIEW AND SCRUTINY PANEL Academies Overview - Progress update on the current state of relationships and challenges Relevant Cabinet Member(s) Wards Affected Key Decision Councillor Nuala Fennelly, All None Cabinet Member for Children, Young People and Schools EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. The purpose of this report is to provide an update on the current position regarding the number of academies in Doncaster and future proposals. EXEMPT REPORT 2. There is no exempt information contained in the report. REOMMENDATIONS 3. That the Scrutiny Panel notes the information presented. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE CITIZENS OF DONCASTER? 4. The Overview and Scrutiny function has the potential to impact upon all of the Council’s key objectives by holding decision makers to account, reviewing performance and developing policy. BACKGROUND 5. Once an academy order is issued by the Secretary of State the Council is required to execute all formal documentation necessary to complete the conversion to academy status. 6. The Secretary of State, through the Regional Schools Commissioner (RSC) expects that future applications to academise through the converter route will either be to join an existing Multi Academy Trust (MAT) or will be from a group of schools wishing to form a MAT supported by a robust growth plan. 7. Initially in Doncaster there was a prevalence of Single Academy Trusts or sponsored academies joining an existing large regional trust. The Local Authority has recently seen the emergence of local Multi Academy Trusts forming out of existing strong local partnerships within the area and it is expected that these will continue to grow both in number and in size potentially forming hubs with smaller groups of schools Page 1 of 7 within one MAT.
