The Role and Responsibility of the School's NOF Co-ordinator
The NOF Co-ordinator is central to
effective planning, monitoring and evaluation of the OoSHL
(Study Support) programme. NOF co-ordination should be managed
by the Study Support Co-ordinator who may the head teacher,
deputy head teacher or co-ordinator responsible for out of
school hours learning provision.
Carrying out an audit of non-NOF funded activities
This is a report of those activities that are already taking
place in the school, or are planned for that year. These could
be funded by other initiatives i.e. Education Business Partnership
or the Standards Fund, and could possibly be conducted on
a voluntary basis.
Devising a Programme
When devising a programme of out of school hours activities
the co-ordinator should be guided by the school's priorities,
as identified in the School Development / Improvement Plan,
taking into account those activities currently being offered
which are not funded from NOF.
Monitoring and Evaluation
of Programme
At the beginning of the programme, schools should give 'outcomes
for learners' in relation to each activity they are offering.
At the end of each year schools will be asked, as part of
the monitoring and evaluation process, to indicate how far
these have been achieved, in the NOF Annual Report. It is
therefore extremely important that systems and procedures
are in place to allow a school to meet the monitoring and
evaluation requirements.
Use of registers for all sessions
This data is used to monitor the uptake of activities in relation
to the number of boys, girls, mixed sessions, together with
ethnicity. The information will then be used to produce the
annual LEA NOF report.
