SI Outcomes Project Sept. 2008
Survey of data currently collected
Generation of initial outcomes set (110)
Consultations to prioritise outcomes
Further development through regions
Pilot exercise (14) May-June 2010
The Pilot exercise
• Trial of a core set in preparation for
national benchmarking
• 13 Enjoy & Achieve, 1 Achieve
Economic Well-Being
• Population: CYP with severe/profound
HI/VI as their sole SEN (0yrs - Year 11)
• Spreadsheet tool to facilitate data
gathering and calculations

Responses from 10 Services
Majority supported use of all 14 PIs
Majority supported widening of pop.
High rating for data required guidance
High rating for calculations guidance
Mixed response on user friendliness
Limitations in current data access
Headlines - 2
• Positive response re future participation
• CYP with sev/prof HI as sole SEN: 72%
(range 47% - 88%)
• CYP with sev/prof VI as sole SEN: 30%
(range 5% - 48%)
• Populations typically very small
The plan
• Intention to run initial national
benchmarking exercise during 2010-11
(using 2009-10 academic year data)
• Next meeting of task group: 16th Sept.
(London)
• Eventual broadening of outcomes set in
accord with ECM
Key questions - 1
• What population should we focus upon
for the pilot and how should we define
it to ensure consistent interpretation?
• Given the typically small populations
involved in each LA would it be more
appropriate to gather raw data only
during the national benchmarking from
which the averages or percentages can
be calculated?
Key questions - 2
• Do we need to change the outcomes
set?
• Should point score average increases be
collected rather than level increases
(ref. A10 & A11)?
• Are there suggestions/group volunteers
to look at some of the wider outcomes
(e.g. VI specialist assessments and
independence checklists)?
