We require schools to rate usefulness; what worked well; what could be improved on and whether the intervention prevented or delayed an exclusion, where applicable.
Comments on the impact for the staff, pupil or school as a whole are recorded and used to evaluate and improve the service.
For example, schools say:
Re: Gilbrook Outreach Staff Training
"Transformed the practice of the staff involved. The children have clear strategies in place."
"Staff working in a solution focused way. A mayor difference was noted and children who were ‘beyond’ were now regularly in green zone."
Re: Peer mediation Training
"Improved playground interaction – less disputes reaching teachers"
" Made a considerable difference – children were using the training to sort out their own problems."
Re: MDA training
"Children can now aim for rewards and recognition as MDAs focussing on positive behaviour."
"Staff feel more confident and there is better consistency & communication between
MDA’s "
Re: Circle of Friends
" Much improved social and emotional well being and positive impact on behaviour."
"Child calmer in class and walking away from difficult situations."
