The impact statement draws on the evidence outlined in the RfP QM Framework but specifically focuses on the impact in terms of identified developments and changes in the knowledge, understanding and practises of the school community which can be demonstrated to be embedded over time.
The detail and scope of the impact statement will depend on the award being applied for. The RfP QM Framework will have indicated the sections where you have strong evidence which you can use to show impact in this statement.
- The Silver Award recognises schools and settings which have developed RfP with recognisable impact on staff knowledge and RfP pedagogy and young people’s recreational reading.
- The Gold Award recognises schools and settings which have developed and embedded an RfP culture with recognisable impact on staff knowledge and RfP pedagogy, parents’ and young people’s recreational reading.
- The Platinum Award recognises schools and settings which have developed, embedded and enriched their RfP culture and ethos with recognisable impact on staff knowledge, RfP pedagogy, parents’ and young people’s recreational reading. In addition, Platinum Award schools and settings offer invitational targeted RfP provision for those young people who are less engaged, and as institutions they are outward facing, involving the wider community. They also have a track record of sustaining RfP which impacts on all young people as readers.
