Some of our recent projects

Software we have developed with our partner schools can often be customised to suit the way you want to work

Individual Education Plan Writer

We have developed a Personal Plan Writer which helps you prepare and review plans such as an Individual Education Plans or any similarly structured set of attainment targets.

With our Personal Plan Writer you can create a structure for a plan, populate it with targets, monitor progress and record reviews of the targets and modify and re-issue the plan.

As you use Personal Plan Writer, you gradually build up a library of targets and methods which can be recalled for use in other plans via a text phrase or key word search.

Life Skills Assessment

This was a joint development with Bradstow School in Kent and Baskerville School in Birmingham, a partnership facilitated by DJThompson&Associates.

The result is a program for setting targets and measuring progress against a range of life skills, using a scoring system which reflects degree of support and frequency of achievement.

Integrated solution for Oak Bank School

The staff at Oak Bank School in Leighton Buzzard work in an environment where the emotional and behavioural difficulties of the students present particular challenges.

DJThompson&Associates are proud to be partnering the school in a range of developments intended to make a wide range of attainment and behavioural information more readily available for staff and parents.

Staff can very easily:

Set and monitor National Curriculum and Vocational Qualification targets projected forward to Key Stage 4 results, based on realistic assumptions about an individual's year-on-year progress
Monitor rate of reading age improvement using a "traffic light" system to measure against actual age and
comparative progress between tests
Record, monitor and analyse information about classroom behaviour and attendance
Analyse information about behavioural and racially motivated incidents and the effectiveness of
Team-Teach de-escalation and positive handling techniques
Produce end of term and end of year reports bringing the information together
