FFT Self Evaluation Reports

FFT were commissioned, by DfES and National Strategies, to produce FFT Self-Evaluation reports for all schools. The reports have been provided to all LAs and to National Strategies. The reports are identical – in terms of contents – to reports which LAs can produce using their FFT LA database and the associated ‘Self Evaluation' link database. At present, reports are not available for special schools since they make use of indicators (such as percentile ranks) which – in our view - are not appropriate to such schools.

View letter mailed by National Strategies to LAs.

FFT Training Materials

Training & Support Materials have been created by FFT in conjunction with colleagues from some of our member LAs as part of a comprehensive training package for LAs, schools and their staff. Each presentation can be used in isolation or as part of a series of training sessions, dependent on the participant's previous knowledge of and experience in using FFT analyses.
