Resource details
The Monitoring Timeline is a free one-page template for planning a year of monitoring, so learning walks, book looks, pupil voice and data reviews are spread sensibly across the terms and everyone knows what is coming.
This template was kindly shared by Kathryn Burgess, a school leader in our community. So many leaders asked for a copy that we put it here for everyone. It has been downloaded more than 2,000 times.
