Section 2: Evaluation

PRIORITY: Improving Attainment

A significant part of the Standards and Quality Report is contained within the school inspection report, produced by HM Inspectorate of Education, 24

th August

2010.

This report will focus on a few activities and developments across the school which may have made a contribution to the HMIe report but which were not

highlighted in the published text.

Raising Attainment. The introduction of an Attendance Officer to support school monitoring of attendance was a positive approach to tackling attendance and attainment issues across the school. A number of subjects had encouraged pupils to attend lunch time classes to support learning and teaching undertaken in classes and they also set time aside to allow pupils to attend during prelim and SQA study periods. A wide range of AfL feedback techniques were undertaken across a number of departments in order to consolidate pupil attainment. Staff confidence to try out new strategies had increased and would remain a focus in session 2010 for many staff. Staff attendance at NQ quality network meetings and the increased understanding of national standards gained by staff involved in SQA marking helped maintain high standards in a number of subjects, particularly at Higher and Advanced Higher. Some departments had focused on attainment targets through the use of displays within and out with classrooms, using praise postcards, Merit stickers and Excellence Awards whilst others had increased the use of exemplar materials, standards workshops and markers’ feedback sheets to share standards with pupils. The increased use of ICT in subjects was evident with SG, Higher and Advanced Higher courses available in some subjects on PowerPoint, TV clips on disc and web hyperlinks used to enrich learning. Increased contact with parents of pupils who were under-achieving or causing concern was used as a strategy which appeared to have a positive effect on attainment and pupil motivation.

Curriculum for Excellence Almost all of the in-service days and most of the school development work focussed on CfE, providing a sound basis to introduce the new courses in session 2010. Assessment of units and courses will be a priority for departments in 2010 and interdisciplinary learning opportunities had been identified in some departments and interdisciplinary projects had started in the ASDAN course.

Learning and Teaching The HT had given clear instructions at the beginning of the session that Learning Intentions would be a feature in all classrooms at every lesson. Anti Racism and Anti Bullying lessons were produced and trialled, involving cross-curricular links and the use of senior pupils to deliver AB lessons. A number of departments were engaged in cross-marking projects and the use of pupil skills evaluation sheets proved to be very effective. The use of Glow was being developed in a number of departments and the use of e-beam and in some classes animation was used to enhance understanding of concepts and enrich learning. The increased use of SQA and Fyfe data to evaluate more fully attainment and learning and teaching, was featured in a number of department approaches to support learning and teaching. Across a wide range of departments aspects of Co-operative Learning was used successfully and there will be further development of this approach in session 2010.

Self-Evaluation

All staff completed the Sirius online self-evaluation questionnaire and almost all departments were using this data for discussion in terms of strengths areas for

development and in some departments for use in PRD interviews. Pupils also completed a learning and teaching questionnaire, the results were issued to staff for

consideration. Events and conferences including the S1 Tutor Programme and Training Day were evaluated by pupils and staff involved. In most departments pupils

completed course evaluation sheets or evaluation exercises and commendably one department had introduced a wide range of self-evaluation tasks and activities in

order that pupils could be increasingly involved in their own learning. Activities undertaken were

• S1/S2 peer assessment tasks andS3/4 target setting

• Post prelim audit with Higher pupils

• Self-assessment tasks in S1-S2

• Completion of PLPs for S1 classes

• Practical evaluation activities in S2 and SG.

Working with Parents and the Local Community

A wide range of Enterprise activities were undertaken over the session for all year groups, with a number of parents contributing to the days acting as mentors, speakers

and demonstrators. Sons and Daughters to Work day allowed S1/S2 pupils to experience the workplace for a day. The School Council and the PTA continued to support

the school through input on educational matters and fundraising for clubs and activities involving a large number of pupils. There was increased contact with parents

through the new attendance procedures. A few departments and enterprise activities continued to use visiting speakers successfully, many from the local community.

Visitors this year have included for example to one department:

Former pupils Kayleigh Harvey spoke to pupils about her visit to Presidential Inauguration ceremony and Sarah Moffat about her experience in Malawi

• Water Aid representative

• Jackie Baillie M.S.P

• Gil Paterson M.S.P.

• Annabel Goldie M.S.P.

• Ken MacDonald BBC

• John Fox, Eva Demaya Centre, Malawi

• Helensburgh Police

Pupils performed at a number of local community events including the West Kirk ‘Sunday at Seven’ Concert and participated in the Red Cross Fundraising Concert.

Parents were pleased to see the work of departments at the annual Open Evening and took a keen interest in the activities demonstrated.

Developing People and Partnerships

The major development in this area was the introduction of the Clan System with the introduction of Clan Chieftains who were elected by the pupils and Clan Chiefs who

were invited to take on the role by the Chieftains. The Clan system replaced the house system. The new framework for Staff training was introduced which linked

training directly to learning and teaching.

Learners’ Experiences and Wider Achievement. Examples of experiences and wider achievement in a selection of departments were; Art and Design

‘Show Racism the Red Card’ poster competition - Three S3 pupils won a SQA National competition and their class attended an award ceremony at Hampden Park. Winning Clan Shield designs produced by pupils were displayed in the ‘Hall Of Fame’ display boards. Pupils participated as models and dressers at the Argyll and Bute Rhapsody event as well as producing outfits and accessories. Advanced Higher folio work was exhibited in the upper assembly hall during the schools Open Night event and corridor displays were regularly up dated to celebrate and display achievement at Parent’s Meetings and Open Night events The Photography club meet on a Wednesday lunch time. the Art Club for S1-S2 pupils meet on a Tuesday lunchtime and the Creativity Company designed and produced the annual Christmas Card and poster designs for the School Biology. The S3 RSPB Lochwinnoch Nature Reserve visit not only developed an increased awareness of eco systems, but through participation in fieldwork, developed confidence in

learners as they worked together. Similar group work skills were developed through the S4 visit to the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh, where small groups of pupils worked

together in the World of Plants Workshops and gained a better understanding of the variety of plants in different parts of the world, through interactive tours. The S4

Auchentoshan Distillery visit raised pupils’ awareness of the biotechnological processes involved in brewing and distilling and enabled pupils to experience an industrial

application of what they had been learning in the classroom.

The Higher Biology visit to Edinburgh Zoo raised pupils’ awareness of adaptations in animals and also developed a greater understanding about the plight of endangered

animal species. The recently introduced Advanced Higher Biology Animal Behaviour Workshop at Edinburgh Zoo helped to develop a greater understanding of animal

behaviour study techniques.

The Advanced Higher Biology Lab Day, run by staff from James Watt College, has proved very useful in developing pupils’ confidence in handling more complex apparatus

and in developing group work and report writing skills. The Advanced Higher Biology Residential Field Trip (four days at the Lochranza Field Studies Centre, Isle of Arran)

allowed pupils an opportunity for intensive study of various aspects of environmental biology.

Home Economics

The department organised sessions for the S1 Health Day, the Cooking Bus for S1 pupil, were involved in the S1 Global awareness week and the primary transition project

– Hooked on Hermitage

The department hosted the Rotary Chef Competition school and regional heats.

Supported study was offered to SG & NQ pupils at lunchtimes and after school.

The PT co-ordinated the Duke of Edinburgh Award including the expedition section where pupils had the opportunity to complete their award abroad & in Scotland.

Pupil Support

The Pupil Support department were involved in a number of activities, for example

• ASDAN – out of school research on tourism and pupils gave talks to the group on extra-curricular topics using evidence from outside school

• Transitions Planning – Independent travel and college visits under auspices of Social Work Department and Enable

• Duke of Edinburgh Award – Community Service for S6 tutors

• CfE – S2 group – shopping at ASDA

• XL – environment (bird boxes). Outdoor activities – team building

Music

Pupils were encouraged and participated in a number of community, local authority and national organisations such as:

• Argyll and Bute Rhapsody Concert

• West of Scotland Symphony Orchestra

• Argyll and Bute Concert Band

• National Youth Orchestra Scotland

• National Youth C Orchestra Scotland

• Helensburgh Oratorio Choir Pupils performed at concerts, music festivals and performed for the Royal Family.

Across the school a high ratio of pupils were involved in a wide range of experiences and achievement.

• Pupils were very positive about engaging in enterprise activities and in cultural, musical, artistic and sporting events as they feel that these activities contribute well to raising their expectations, self –confidence and helped develop their team working skills.

• A high proportion of pupils in S3 to S6 were involved in volunteering with senior pupils displaying leadership by organising a number of events and activities and in their roles as clan chiefs and buddies.

• Pupils with additional support needs developed their self esteem and confidence through film-making projects.

• A pupil committee in S6 were involved in organising an S6 health conference for the first time. This was very positively evaluated by those who participated.

• Pupils are heavily involved in organising a wide range of charity events and school and community activities. Senior pupils perform at community events through music and dance and also contribute as sports coaches in primary schools and community clubs. These activities help pupils develop skills, attitudes and competences for active citizenship.

• Pupils took part in a wide range of musical activities including the very successful school show and Concert for Africa which helped develop their confidence as performers.

• Pupils demonstrated commitment and developed their team working skills and fitness levels by participating in a rage of sporting activities, including the three peaks race and football.

• All pupils in S4 participated in mock interviews held by employers from the local area which had a big impact on pupils as it was very realistic and enabled them to identify skills they could further develop.

• The school has a very well developed range of opportunities for young people to learn outside formal classes. An exceptional range of partnerships with employers ensures that young people meet and learn from visiting guests with knowledge and experience of a very wide range of occupations.

• Pupils are very active as volunteers within their communities, 400 are registered to complete Millennium Volunteer Awards next session.

• A small group of pupils are working towards a Duke of Edinburgh’s Awards at Bronze, Silver and Gold levels and as part of this are developing leadership skills and participating in community projects.
