Goals for Today
Introduce the School Effectiveness Framework (SEF)
Select SEF indicators to assist in SIP planning Enhance SIP Planning the SEF Use specific and varied data to inform the process Develop a specific school literacy focus Network with your TLTT
21st Century Skills
21st Century SkillsScience
Literacy, mathematical literacy, and investigation skills are critical to students’ success in all subjects of the curriculum and in all areas of their lives.
The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 9 & 10: Science (2008, p. 39)
21st Century SkillsMathematics
Literacy skills can play an important role in student success in mathematics courses. Many of the activities and tasks students undertake in math courses involve the use of written, oral, and visual communication skills.
The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 9 & 10: Mathematics (2008, p. 27)
21st Century SkillsCanadian & World Studies
Success in Canadian and world studies courses depends in large part on strong literacy skills. Many of the activities and tasks students undertake in Canadian and world studies courses involve the use of written, oral, and visual communication skills.
The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 9 & 10: Canadian & World Studies (2005, p. 24)
21st Century SkillsTechnological Studies
Literacy, mathematical literacy, and inquiry/research skills are critical to students’ success in all subjects of the curriculum and in all areas of their lives. Many of the activities and tasks that students undertake in the technological education curriculum involve the literacy skills relating to oral, written, and visual communication.
The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 9 & 10: Technological Studies (2009, p. 38)
School Improvement Planning (SIP)
EDU Ministry expectations and core priorities:(1) increase student achievement(2) close the gap(3) increase confidence in public education
Sustained improvement based on aligning SIP with Board Improvement Plan (BIP)
The way schools ‘do business’ has changed in response to societal changes, action research (education and learning), evidence-based decision making
SIP planning has also changed in response to this changing paradigm

SEF K-12 (Draft)
7 Essential Components
26 indicators (at present)
Ministry Goal
The goal for 2009-2010 is for all Boards and all their schools to become familiar with the new K – 12 School Effectiveness Framework which provides an important lens through which schools in both panels may view their plans and progress toward improved outcomes for our students.
School Achievement Division SymposiumSeptember 29th – October 1st, 2009
What is the K – 12 SEF?
A resource that:– Supports school improvement planning;– Focuses conversations on research-based best
practices;– Makes board and school improvement planning
more strategic and focused;– Provides a self reflective assessment tool for
school and district reviews; and– Supports a continuous process that move staff to
specific actions related to student achievement goals in SIP and Board Improvement Plans (BIP).
What SEF is not…
Not evaluative (not part of TPA) Specific to individuals (‘school as a unit’) A secret process A look back to see how you did A wide & narrow view A single event The end point Extra stuff to do
Evidence Based Improvement
What does student work tell us about what we are doing (ie. teacher’s practice)?
What does effective teaching practice look like or sound like in a school?

Students’ Attitude & Achievement
Grade 9 EQAO Applied Mathematics trends Relationship between student achievement and
student attitude Relationship between student achievement, student
attitude and instructional practice Use of data to improvement student achievement
(trend analysis) Moving towards focused and precise intervention &
strategies Example – Grade 9 applied math
Student QuestionnaireGrade 9 Applied Level Math
Attitudes Toward Mathematicsa. I like mathematics.b. I am good at mathematics.c. I understand most of the mathematics I am taught.d. The mathematics I learn now is very useful for
everyday life.e. I need to keep taking mathematics for the kind of job I
want after I leave school.f. Mathematics is boring.g. Mathematics is an easy subject.
Evidence
Should the greater % of students who agree or strongly agree with the question:I understand most of the mathematics I am taught.
You would expect scores to _________. Conversely, fewer % of students who agree
or strongly agree with the question would result in _________ scores.

What did we believe occurred?
A change in instructional practice shaped an increase in both student achievement and attitude toward mathematics.
Hypotheses:– There is a pattern indicating that since the inception of the
TIPS 4RM format (2005-06), applied-level EQAO results have increased substantially.
What does it looks like?
In the school… In the classroom… Smaller Gr. 9 math classes (in a.m.) Experienced teachers Provide student mathematics profile for all feeder school students Use of TIPS 4RM format Use of technology to deliver TIPS 4RM Pragmatic & ’hands on’ activities Use of Think Literacy Strategy textbook search Early & frequent counseling to Grade 8 students and parents Secondary School Mathematics Professional Learning Team (PLT) Homework room support for students
Students engaged, on task and interacting with teacher Use of ‘read aloud’ and think aloud’ strategies to assist in the inquiry process SMART Board delivery of TIPS 4RM Daily use of MATCH template (‘handouts’ -TIPS) that incorporate scaffolded learning and slow gradual release of responsibility Student-centered activities through the daily use of: CPS, CBR, TI-83 graphing calculators, Geometer’s Sketchpad and interactive Internet-based math games and puzzles via SMART Board
Moving ForwardPersonalization and Precision
By focusing on student work we incorporate Personalization and Precision into the SIP process
Begin with the end in mind Backward design Evidence of progress
– How will you know it’s working? School alignment and moderation SEF School & District Review

Essential Components & Indicators2009-10
Curriculum, Teaching and Learning Practices1. Instructional practices reflect a continuum of knowledge and
skills that are innovative and progressive4. There is a clear emphasis on literacy and numeracy
achievement. Assessment for, as and of Learning
1. A variety of valid and reliable assessment data is collected, disaggregated and used to inform planning.
Interventions and Closing the Gap2. There are shared and clearly understood processes and
practices in place for monitoring, tracking and analyzing student data to improve student achievement.
