Reforming and developing the school workforce
Ofsted, London, (October 2007)
Abstract
This report evaluates the introduction and implementation of workforce reform within the context of the national agreement and other initiatives related to workforce deployment. The survey that formed the basis for this report found that the reforms have resulted in a revolutionary shift in the culture of the school workforce. Teachers' time and work are now focused more directly on teaching and learning and the substantial expansion of the wider workforce at all levels is allowing the schools to extend the curriculum, provide more care, guidance and support for pupils, and use data more effectively to monitor pupils' progress.
