A progress review report exploring a project measuring performance in judgements of quality in teaching, learning, and assessment.
The project focused on appraising a redesign and upgrade of the entirety of a college's quality framework. The upgrading of the quality framework used a whole organisation approach that engaged multiple stakeholders including governors, SMT members, and heads of departments. This development was divided into three stages. The first stage worked on a common inspection framework used by department heads to drive performance. The second stage worked on an operational framework to include a sufficient number of performance indicators, to be mapped onto the common inspection framework. The third stage was a review of the quality indicators and additional reports to provide feedback and changes to the proposed model.
The senior management team approved of the updated framework, which provided them more time to focus on governance and strategic management. Curriculum leaders reported that the framework allowed them to drive improvements and workloads. Data was gathered through interviews/surveys and custom tests/assessments.
