At Endeavour Academy we set our learners challenging yet achievable Learning Targets which are the small steps we use to track their progress against EHCP outcomes.

Endeavour Academy introduced a new assessment strategy in September 2018 in response to The Rochford review. This ensures we can capture all types of progress made by our learners across all curriculum areas - Wellbeing, Social, Independence and Knowledge, Skills and Understanding.

To set targets we work as a multi-professional group which includes: parents, teachers, therapists, social workers, carers, LD CAHMS and other relevant health professionals. We do this via:

• Person Centred Planning
• EHCP outcomes
• Learning Intentions - set on a termly basis

To track progress we are currently using:

• Assessments within Evidence for Learning
• Endeavour Academy Learning Intentions
• Personal Behaviour Support Plans
• Occupational Therapy specific assessments and reports
• Speech and Language Therapy specific assessments and reports
• Functional analysis

We use evidence of learner's progress throughout the Academy and enrichment activities to contribute towards their ASDAN, Art Awards and Duke of Edinburgh accreditation.
