Areas for further development

The SIA lead is now aware of all the requirements of the award process and know how to demonstrate impact in order to achieve the award next time. The school reports that they have the data available to show impact, so they now need to analyse that data to demonstrate impact.

Overall comments

The school is clearly providing some excellent opportunities for staff to develop and promote their wellbeing (their intent and implementation were very clear), but the award process has not been followed sufficiently for the benchmarks to show any measurable impact. The validation meeting time was used to talk the SIA lead through what needs to be done to achieve the award, and she is now clear about what impact evidence to show; the school hopes to submit again in the future. Two useful articles from the SIA website were shared to guide the school with measuring and evidencing impact.
