GOLD AWARDThe subject leader ensures that excellent practice is visible, sustained and evolving across the whole school. This excellent practice has a clear impact on partners beyond the school.
SILVER AWARDThe subject leader is having an increasing impact across the school, where science has a high profile. Many excellent practices are developed and implemented. Some links with partners outside the school are being established.
BRONZE AWARDThe subject leader is beginning to have an impact beyond his/her own class and the profile of science is growing across the school. Some excellent practices are being developed and implemented.

Criteria Activities
PSQM Tasks
Two models to support effective action planning
SMART targets
•Specific •Measurable•Achievable•Realistic•Time related
Effective CPD model (Adey et al)
• Relevant to need• Sustained• Collaborative• Embedded in culture of school• Career linked

A SMART Action or Target is one that is:
Target SMART Action e.g.

Improve Teacher assessment in Science
Improve Teaching

Target SMART Action e.g.

Each member of staff in KS2 will be able to use APP criteria to assign a ‘level’ to each groups of pupils in their class by July 2010
Improve Teaching By the end of Autumn term 2011, at least 1 science lesson per week will use pupils own ideas to drive the learning forwards

Effective action planning
Examples: Improve Teacher assessment in Science
Relevant to need e.g. How identified, what might the need be?
Sustained e.g. How to indicate that change will be come embedded?
Collaborative e.g. Who else might be included?
Embedded in culture of school
E.g. How will the school supporting change?
