Monitoring your feedback system
Using the Feedback Coverage dashboard, school leaders can immediately answer questions like:
- How often is feedback being given?
- Who is receiving feedback?
- Who is giving feedback?
- Who is not receiving feedback?
- Who is not giving feedback?
- Is feedback being given evenly across the teaching strands?
This dashboard can be used as a monitoring tool so that leaders can find out very quickly if feedback is being given and received with the intended regularity.
