Background of Interventions What areas are we trying to cover with this work? The future of recording Interventions in SIMS will span across any area where schools offer extra activities for pupils/students above and beyond normal teaching Some of these areas that we are hoping to link are: SEN, G&T, Pupil Premium

Challenges with tracking Interventions • Provisioning multiple students for support • Understand how each intervention has had an effect performance indicators • Track which interventions are most effective • Track cost vs impact • Record interventions across multiple areas in one place

Challenges with tracking Interventions Things that interventions should do that are currently difficult • Have pre-defined reports on interventions • Record start and end and target points for interventions • Add evidence to interventions • Track interventions against whole school objectives

Areas related to SIMS Interventions Conduct Reporting • Behaviour • Achievement SEN • Individual reports • Funding reports • Comparison reports Funding • Pupil Premium – disadvantaged pupils • SEN funding • School budget • Statuses • Need types • SEN Provisions Interv Assessment • Overall grades • Grades in individual subjects ention s Attendance • Minutes late • Unexplained absences • % Attendance G&T • Achievements • Extra curricular activities

Themes Having an area to define themes for interventions • Examples of themes could be: improve lateness, engage students in maths, pupil premium support, improve behaviour etc. • Themes can have whole school objectives attached to them • Each theme can have multiple interventions attached

Define Themes Theme New Improve lateness statistics Add intervention types to theme Reading Support Breakfast club Times tables support Lunchtime intervention Search

Define Interventions Brand new area to define Interventions to include: • Intervention name • Define what to measure Intervention against • Set what the default target should be • Attach comments and documents about the actual intervention to the intervention • Link Interventions to Themes • Add costs to Interventions

Adding detail to students on interventions Using Interventions that you have already set up • Can record whether or not the intervention was successful for each student – efficacy • Ability to link adults to the intervention over the date range • Ability to record comments about the intervention as a whole

Where we are planning on heading with Interventions Reporting Filter Assessment Manager Marksheets by Interventions Bring Interventions into Discover Widgets on homepage and STV Quick report on which students have which Interventions vs cost Interventions vs efficacy Widget for staff to easily find which students they are helping with their interventions
