Quality Management in Local Authority Educational Psychology Services 2: Self-Evaluation Toolkit
Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Education
The toolkit has been developed by the profession and the two training universities of Dundee and Strathclyde to support self-evaluation. Educational psychologists from across Scotland, representing all professional levels, have been directly involved in the consultation and development of this document. The toolkit has been designed to provide a more detailed look at self-evaluation. It outlines a systematic approach for educational psychology services to use when evaluating the effectiveness with which they deliver their services. The process of self-evaluation helps services to: (1) recognise the positive impact their work has on stakeholders for example, children and young people, parents, families, educational staff and partner agencies; (2) highlight levels of service which need to be maintained or where improvement is needed and where they should be working to achieve excellence; (3) identify what they can do to make things better for stakeholders; and (4) inform stakeholders about the quality of services in the area. Appended are: (1) Bibliography; and (2) Grid for cross-referencing sources of evidence with quality indicators. (Contains 1 footnote.) [This document has been developed in full partnership with the Scottish Division of Educational Psychology and the Association of Scottish Principal Educational Psychologists.]
