An introduction to Deep Dives – non subject specific
- This course is designed for subject leaders and senior leaders
- It takes course delegates through both the methodology of a deep dive on inspection, as well as a practical approach to planning, timetabling, and delivering a deep dive in their subject within your school.
Leaders will leave this course feeling confident in how to approach a deep dive in their subject and will leave with a sense of accomplishment, as all the planning and organization around a deep dive (and other forms of monitoring) will have been completed, ready to conduct a deep dive in school.
By the end of this training, you will:
- Have a full set of NEW monitoring and evaluation materials, including for DEEP DIVES.
- Be clear about how to demonstrate the quality of pupil outcomes through monitoring & a triangulated approach, using ‘DEEP DIVE’ monitoring in Core & Foundation Subjects.
- Work through a connected ‘DEEP DIVE’ in your subject using ECM material and be clear about how to conduct this effectively in your school.
- Have familiarised yourself with new monitoring material through ECM’s Monitoring Supporting Documents (developed through the latest educational research).
