National Association for Able Children (NACE)
Challenge Award

The Challenge Award Self Evaluation Framework provides a standard by which you can audit, evaluate and plan for continuous whole school improvement of provision.

The Framework consists of ten Elements which together describe quality provision. Each Element contains objective criteria and suggested evidence of what constitutes effective practice. It not only gives benchmarks but, with the supporting materials, shows you how to improve.

The Framewwork is being used widely across whole LEAs and clusters of schools in the UK.
