To agree local

(when agreed).

Activity
of Group
Including Position Statement |
The
Group has met on three occasions to finalise the revision of the previous
work on comparative context data which was undertaken by the South
of England PEPs' Group and to incorporate Activity Indicators derived
from the DfEE's Working Party report on the Role of Educational Psychologists.
This enabled
us to carry out a first round of comparison by sharing the data,
which lead to a further refinement of the spreadsheet-based data
collection form.
The next phase
is to generate "outcome" data, which would enable E.P.
Services to compare themselves with each other in terms of effectiveness.
A start was made at our last meeting by asking N. Knapman of the
SW Regional SEN Partnership to collate and present information relating
to national attempts to deal with this issue. Further developments
will depend on the progress of the national group and will involve
incorporating nationally agree outcome indicators into the local
data collection format.
