dc.description.abstractBackground: The purpose of the study was to develop a system to evaluate pupil progress in primary schools, using data to support self-evaluation and review, and to provide targeted support for underachieving pupils. Aims: The main aim is to improve school self-evaluation and review processes by focusing on pupil progress rather than end of key stage attainment, and to use data to support this. Methods: The participants in this development work were headteachers, senior leadership teams, school improvement partners, and regional advisers. The methods used included consultation with schools, a focus on pupil progress rather than end of key stage attainment, a pupil progress spreadsheet, and a report format linked to the self-evaluation form. Findings: The main findings are that the School Achievement Review has been extended to focus on ongoing pupil progress, with CPD approaches used to support this. A pupil progress spreadsheet and report format have been developed to measure progress towards success criteria. Implications: The findings suggest that focusing on pupil progress rather than end of key stage attainment can lead to improved school self-evaluation and better targeted support for pupils. This is evidenced by an increase in the number of schools in good or outstanding Ofsted categories.en
