Working with four Leeds primary and secondary schools, Dr Samy provided a
consultancy service which identified the individual needs and interests of each
school, produced a bespoke survey to identify the views and perceptions of
teachers, pupils and parents, and presented his findings to the school in a
report. This information can then be used to complete the Self Evaluation
Form (SEF) introduced by OFSTED and to make improvements where
necessary.
The questionnaires take into account both the respondent’s views of the
school’s current situation and their view of what would be ideal. This
information is then presented as statistical data which, together, is a unique
method not used by any existing school effectiveness consultancy centres.
As a result of the study’s success so far, this will now become a major
research activity for Leeds Metropolitan University, with the aim of providing a
bespoke service to schools nationally.
