Create a bespoke abacus for a high-priority theme, such as "Literacy Across the Curriculum" or "Pupil Wellbeing." By setting subjects or year groups as the evaluation areas, you can ensure every team is focused on and accountable for contributing to the same strategic goal.
Use a shared template to establish what "excellent" or "outstanding" practice looks like in relation to your theme. This ensures all department or subject leaders evaluate their contribution against the same consistent expectations, providing you with clear, comparable insights.
A themed abacus allows specialist leads to gather targeted evidence and create focused action plans. This provides a clear, evidence-backed record of progress, perfect for demonstrating the impact of your strategies to senior leadership, governors, and inspectors.
Take ownership of your area of responsibility with a structured and focused evaluation tool. Demonstrate the impact of your strategies, make data-informed adjustments, and provide clear reports on progress to senior leadership.
Gain an instant, at-a-glance comparison of how a key priority is being implemented across all subjects or departments. This allows you to identify best practices, provide targeted support, and ensure whole-school alignment on strategic goals.
