Designated teacher audit tool

Audit and self-evaluation tools for professionals in schools, early years settings and post-16 providers supporting Virtual School learners.

These resources can support leaders and designated professionals in reviewing the quality and effectiveness of their provision for Virtual School learners. This includes identifying strengths and priorities for development, and evidencing the impact of their work on outcomes for children and young people.

The tools are aligned with relevant statutory guidance and current inspection frameworks. They provide a framework for reviewing areas such as:

• leadership

• inclusion

• attendance

• achievement

• personal development

• safeguarding

• PEP quality

• learner voice

• transition arrangements

They can also support reporting to governors, trustees and senior leaders.
