School Improvement and Performance

Standards and Quality Reports and School Improvement Plans

Each session all schools and nurseries in Stirling produce a Standards and Quality Report to provide a record of the establishment’s progress and performance, including children and young people’s achievements. The Standards and Quality Report also outlines priorities for the coming year.

School Improvement Plans for each session set out key priorities as identified within the Standards and Quality Report and based on effective, collaborative self-evaluation, including an evidence-based approach with careful analysis of data and consideration of national (NIF), regional, local and learning community priorities. Improvement Plans aim to set out clear and practical actions with measurable outcomes which will result in demonstrable improvements for our children and young people.

Please contact schools and nurseries who will direct you to their reports and plans.

Parentzone

The Parentzone website managed by Education Scotland offers public access to information and statistics about Scottish schools. The School Information Dashboard on the Parentzone website brings together a range of information to help raise attainment, ensure all learners have the best chance to succeed, and support school improvement. The dashboard is broken down into three sectors - primary schools, secondary schools and special schools. In each sector, you can look at information for individual schools as well as national data.
