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.

Solihull Council and Solihull Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) have launched a new website about services and support available locally for children and young people aged 0-25 with SEND, and their families.

From social care, community health services and education to preparing for adulthood, social activities and employment, the ‘Solihull Local Offer’ provides a whole host of useful information about the wide range of services people can access and the support they are entitled to. For more information, please visit the website below.

Safeguarding work related to FGM began in 2011 when the school realised that they had missed an opportunity to protect a child from FGM. Staff in the school were concerned that many other girls in the school may be vulnerable to FGM and thattheir own knowledge and understanding about FGM was limited. This compelled staff to gain more knowledge urgently, with the aim to raise awareness within the school and local community and safeguard their pupils more effectively.
