Thank you to the schools who submitted their autumn phonics data through SIMS to the Data and Performance team. As this is a new collection process that became available at the end of last term only a small number of schools did this. Therefore, we have been able to arrange for the submission date to be extended to Friday 9th February 2018. If enough schools participate, analysis will be provided back to schools and in time we hope to create analyse within SIMS that you can run immediately after data entry has been completed. Having this data recorded in SIMS also means it is available to pull through onto other marksheets, such as tracker marksheets, which might be useful.
All schools within the CLLD network have had the relevant templates uploaded into SIMS. If you are not in the CLLD network but are interested in being part of this collection, please log a helpdesk call for EIMS, and they will set this up for you.
Arrangements for the termly collection of school's Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 Phonics data through SIMS.
Please refer to the attached document below which was circulated at Heads’ Conference in January. Training for Person Centred Planning is available to two schools from each collaborative with a view to rolling this out to all schools through the collaboratives. If you have a SENCo, senior leader or governor who is interested please contact Louise Minter (email: s47lminter@streetsbrook.solihull.sch.uk) by Friday 16th February 2018.
The DfE have now published guidance on how to access free period products in their place of study for learners at all state-maintained schools and 16 to 19 education organisations in England.
To make sure organisations have access to a wide range of period products in the most cost-effective and efficient way, the DfE have a contract with Personnel Hygiene Services Limited (phs). This allows you to order period products and have them delivered when you need them.
This guidance contains information on:
- choosing and ordering period products
- distributing products within institutions
- tackling stigma
The following websites contain useful resources for schools to consider their own practice in supporting young people who are menstruating and addressing the stigma around menstruation with all pupils:
