In this book Rita Cheminais shows you how your setting can achieve the Every Child Matters (ECM) Standards. Paying attention to the practical details, she provides advice and guidance on:

- applying the ECM standards to mainstream primary and secondary schools, special schools, Pupil Referral Units (PRUs) and Children's Centres;

- undertaking the ECM Standards audit;

- monitoring and evaluating progress;

- building a portfolio of evidence;

- the assessment process.

The evidence gathered towards meeting the ECM Standards can be fed into and inform the OFSTED school self-evaluation form (SEF).

The author has also included:

- full evidence descriptors for each of the 12 ECM Standards in table format, aligned with the relevant ECM outcomes;

- useful summary checklists;

- an accompanying CD full of downloadable material, including an improvement planning and self-evaluation framework and a Power-Point presentation.

Every educational setting needs this book.

To access the forms from the CD, click on 'Sample Chapters and Materials' in the left hand navigation.
