Data Warehouse and School Level Plan conversations with Admin cluster. SB- Discussion occurred at appointments related to PGP-SLP discussions, but also when data became available. Participated in some RtI meetings at school where staff utilized teacher knowledge with hard data from GSSD. A couple of school need to create something more structured in this. Brought forward to PGP and adm appraisals. SB- Participated in IIP meetings where requested. SB- Assisted in attendance-related interventions upon monthly reports. These were effective for most cases, but attendance is a common theme among schools. In cases students continue to do well but not attending yet succeeding through likes of flex/Google classroom. In other cases, attendance has been hard. Some staffs willing to differentiate on assignments to assist such students. |
