Welcome
The Centre for Successful Schools (CfSS) was founded in 1989 by Tim Brighouse to support school improvement initiatives (particularly in urban settings). Since then, CfSS has continued to support a wide range of schools and local authorities with attitudinal surveys which give students, parents and teachers a platform to voice their opinions.
"I really would like to thank you for the effort you made during the process and also all your help and approach. It was a pleasure for us to co-operate with such a professional and well-structured body."
Survey prices start from £195.
The Centre also holds conferences and events at which eminent educationalists debate key issues related to ‘success’ in schooling. These events will be of particular interest to a wide range of delegates, including education organisers at national and regional level, academics in further and higher education, managers and advisors in local authorities, school leadership teams and classroom practitioners.
What's New
Survey Developments
In order to assist schools with the process of self-evaluation, new sections have been introduced into all standard CfSS survey reports which relate the school's findings to Ofsted's guidance on developing an effective school self-evaluation summary.
Conference
Our next annual conference "PROMOTING LEARNER ENGAGEMENT" will take place on Friday 28th June 2013. Confirmed speakers include Professor Michael Fielding (Institute of Education), Professor Susan Hallam (Institute of Education), Dr Elizabeth Sidwell (Schools Commissioner), and Sir Alan Steer.
