The 2019 data summary for Cambridgeshire can be found here. It covers a summary of all key stages in primary schools.
We are hoping primary schools are finding the schools on the page and QLA analysis helpful. To support your use of this, you can find an explanation of the RAG rating here and we have the overall Cambridgeshire position for the Year 6 QLA which can be found here. Please let us have any feedback on these.

We have updated our list of link officers to schools to allow for new starters and leavers. Details of these can be found here. I will be undertaking the schools survey again after half term and I am intending to collect feedback on this role and we will be considering how it will continue early in the new year. In the meantime, officers will be contacting you shortly to organise contacts for this academic year. If there are any queries please let me know. A descriptor and expectation of your link officer role can be found here.

Mr Duncan Bannatyne visited Granta today ahead of the Well Child awards in London this evening. His day included a tour of the school, a meeting with school council and a wonderful presentation by 6th form students. We hope he will come back soon.
Tiny Happy People – the BBC’s biggest ever education initiative which aims to contribute to closing the ‘word gap’ in children aged 0-5 will be soft launching on 16 October.
It’s a free, online resource for parents, carers and professionals to inspire and empower care givers to chat and play with their children.
We are now into the full swing of the new inspection framework and gathering feedback from inspections. We are looking to share this more formally with schools in the autumn. Inspectors are finding their way with the new approach and I would recommend that heads review the Ofsted Myth Busting documentation so you are familiar with the expectations for inspectors. It can be found here.
Thanks Helena for reminding me to share this document!

The Physical Education Advisory Service delivered an extremely well received PE conference on October 2 2019 in St Ives. There were 97 delegates from schools across Cambridgeshire & Peterborough attending a choice of 16 applied workshops, and an innovative marketplace. Keynote presentations were made by Sue Wilkinson (CEO AfPE), Jon Glenn (Swim England) and Elaine Wyllie (Founder of the Daily Mile). Cllr Simon Bywater welcomed delegates to the event, with pertinent talk about the holistic contribution that PE and Physical Activity makes to the lives of young people. Downloads of presentations and resources are available at this link.
In January 2020 Cambridgeshire social care and early help teams will be moving to a new case management system – LiquidLogic.
This will provide access for schools to record their interventions in the system allowing a more joined up approach to working with children and their families in our communities.
You will be able to see a history of professionals involved with the family and if there is an open early help assessment.
In LiquidLogic all processes are completed online including early help assessments,plans and requests for additional support; you will no longer need to send paper copies of documents to us.
A series of training sessions have been arranged for schools to find out more and ask questions about the new process (see below). Click here for more information.
