\"\"<\/a>This post outlines one possible digital solution for a quality assurance process when reviewing leaner evidence.<\/p>\n

Using Microsoft Teams and OneNote, learner evidence can be curated and shared with peers. Discussion around learner evidence can be done asynchronously or live, with the results of the discussion recorded in text, video or voice notes.\u00a0 Every member of the team will be able to access the record of quality assurance to enable them to make judgements about their own learners.<\/p>\n

An interactive summary of this suggested process can be downloaded here.<\/p>\n

<\/i> Quality Assuring Senior Phase Learner Evidence<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Step 1- Identify Staff Groups<\/h2>\n

Identify a group of teachers who will work together to quality assure evidence.\u00a0 Example groupings might be<\/p>\n

    \n
  • trios of subject departments from across a local authority or regional improvement collaborative<\/li>\n
  • a group of single teacher department from across a local authority.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    It is likely to be more manageable to limit the number of staff per group.<\/p>\n

    If possible, when creating groups of staff, distribute staff\/departments who are experienced with SQA marking appropriately.<\/p>\n

    Step 2 – Set up a PLC Team in Microsoft Teams.<\/h2>\n

    One person from each group sets up a team and creates a OneNote notebook to host the quality assurance evidence.\u00a0 A template page can be created to ensure consistency of recording evidence.\u00a0 The template text used in the video can be downloaded below.<\/p>\n

    This short video outlines the process of creating a PLC Team and a structure for the Notebook. At this stage, it would be beneficial if the person creating the team and notebook had access to the OneNote desktop app in order to add Section Groups.<\/p>\n
