School Impact and Outcomes
Show measurable progress quickly with pilot-ready metrics designed for school decision-making.
What gets measured
Starting point
Baseline completion and cohort targets show where the pilot begins.
Participation
Track intervention completion and assignment coverage across the cohort.
Current performance
Review current attainment snapshots by learner, group, and target area.
Gain indicators
Compare movement in reading and support indicators across the pilot window.
Evidence definition for pilot reviews
Example evidence format
The report format can show baseline, current position, completion and confidence indicators during a pilot. Early internal examples should be treated as pilot reporting examples, not externally validated outcome claims.
What we recommend schools measure during a pilot
- Baseline completion rate by cohort
- Current attainment snapshot by target domain
- Reading gain indicator movement across pilot window
- Intervention completion and assignment coverage
- Confidence and engagement trend markers
Baseline vs current
Make review meetings concrete by showing where the cohort started and where it is now.
Gain indicators
Use movement in attainment and confidence signals to judge whether intervention is working.
Operational context
Tie the final report back to the teacher workflow that produced the intervention decisions.
Baseline summary
Shows the agreed starting point before intervention work begins.
Current attainment snapshot
Gives a practical picture of where learners are now, not just where they started.
Reading gain and confidence movement
Helps leaders judge whether support is working and where adjustment is needed.
Next-step recommendation
Supports a rollout, extension, or refinement decision rather than leaving the pilot open-ended.
Review cadence for school leaders
- Week 0: establish baseline and cohort targets
- Week 3: compare current position against midpoint expectations
- Week 6: review gains, completion, and rollout recommendation
Leadership reporting
Export summaries for leadership and governance reviews, then compare baseline and current outcomes during midpoint and end-of-pilot checkpoints.
How schools actually use this evidence
- SEN and inclusion review meetings
- SLT progress and intervention updates
- MAT or trust-level reporting conversations
- Pilot-to-rollout decision meetings
