AboutNEWS FLASH... Are you ready for the 2012 framework?
Ofsted’s new inspection framework, effective from January 2012, underlines the importance of stakeholder opinion, with a commitment to give “greater consideration to the view of parents, pupils and staff as important evidence *” * Draft Ofsted Inspection Framework
From 1st January our reports will provide an evidence summary enabling you to prepare for the new 2012 inspection framework. For ASCL members there is a dedicated ASCL recommended self evaluation evidence section as recommended by ASCL
Delivering high-quality stakeholder evidence, our surveys offer schools a truly cost-effective way of ensuring school improvement measures are on the right track and demonstrating this to Ofsted. To learn more about the 2012 framework click here.
Welcome to Kirkland Rowell
Kirkland Rowell’s range of stakeholder surveys takes the pain out of self-evaluation by allowing you to monitor all aspects of your school’s performance and find out what your pupils and their parents really think.
Uniquely, we weight our findings against the measured perceptions and attitudes in similar schools to yours from our database of over a million parents, pupils and staff nationwide, to give you one of the most useful management tools available to schools today.
Our surveys have already been adopted as the solution to the self-evaluation requirements by over 2000 schools across Britain; making Kirkland Rowell the market leader in school surveys and the stakeholder survey specialists.
Kirkland Rowell are recommended by ASCL and NAHT.
The requirement for self-evaluation of parental and pupil attitudes is now the corner-stone of the inspection process. Fulfilling this requirement can be expensive, time-consuming and, without specialist knowledge and an understanding of what parents and pupils usually feel, ultimately inconclusive.
