evidence trail

does the visit relate to a priority in the College Improvement
Plan e.g. closing the gap for disadvantaged students, developing

meeting in the Autumn Term:
Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural (SMSC) / British Values
Ana is accountable for this subject being delivered through:Curriculum Areas
Tutor time
Assemblies
Newsletters
This has been a busy political year and Ana has produced ideas for tutor time. Examples have beenThe Paris bombings.
Mock Referendum
Dallas shootings
Battle of the Somme
Staff training has taken place on Friday mornings
Faculties have produced an audit to say where SMSC is delivered in their areas.
The PREVENT agenda comes under safeguarding and Greg is responsible for the delivering of this.
Ana has logged everything that happens in KS4 and KS5 and has kept an evidence file which as a governor I
was able to see. This will be handed on to the person in charge for next year. Good evidence trail to show an
OFSTED inspector.
I would like to thank Ana for the work she has put into this on top of her busy teaching commitments. I wish
her all the best in her new role as head of History across the campus.
