Keyworker training
Keyworking is a pivotal element in QoL delivery. Each student and their family are allocated a keyworker.
QOL QUESTIONNAIRE
The QoL framework begins with building a complete understanding of how students and their families feel. The questionnaire is accessed online for all members.
Progress matrix
QoL is a continuous and ongoing programme. It seeks to continually check on a termly basis how students and their families are feeling.
independence plus
All members receive a QoL practical curriculum. This combines all aspects of communication, self management and independence.
data analysis
Experience tells us that it is much more effective to translate data into a visual format. As part of the framework there are tools to help you prepare graphs and charts which translate responses into images.
studies and research
We provide templates which you can use to produce your own case studies for network sharing. If you want to submit your results into an external project, the tools provided make this task much more straight forward.
quality assurance
We have found that sharing ideas about your experience and application of the QoL framework helps support strategic planning, whole school self-evaluation, governance and OFSTED preparation.
appraisal and training
The framework tools assist in developing a broader understanding of how a QoL approach can inform job descriptions, individual staff appraisal targets, staff meetings and whole school training.
