Coventry agency updates

CAMHS: Mental Health Support Teams offer early intervention to young people in the form of low intensity CBT as well as targeted support allowing schools to adopt a whole school approach. These teams are NHS funded and Coventry have been successful in acquiring a further two teams. Spaces are limited, and we are now inviting schools to apply to be a part of this project. Contact tom.clubb@coventry.gov.uk for further information and to request an application form.

Department for Education: Mental health lead training - applying for a grant

Victim Focus: Trauma-informed education settings - responding to violence against women and girls

Primary moderation

Thanks to everyone who has been involved in supporting the statutory assessment process at KS1 and KS2 this last academic year. A review of the year will be shared with network leads later this month.

Our website contains all the relevant links and information on statutory assessment. This includes our training offer for this year and also details of our service level agreement. Assessment, Moderation, Monitoring and Data Collection

Academies must go on to the Primary Assessment Gateway (PAG) and notify STA if they are using a non-geographic local authority for KS2 monitoring and moderation. It is good practice for academies to inform their geographic local authority if they intend to use an alternative local authority.
