Feedback Reflection and Evaluation
We are making data/evidence informed improvement in our HPS facilitation
We know we are successful when we:
• are confident and capable in analysing HPS data base reports
• can set evidence based targets and track our progress against local and national targets
• make changes in our practice based on evidence about what effective HPS facilitation looks like
• can support others to improve their practice
Research on behaviour change suggests that people will change if:
- they have a purpose to believe in
- they have the skills and capacity for the new behaviour
- role models act consistently
Choose a small number of priority areas.Focus relentlessly on these.

Improvement
• Noticing, investigating and collaborative sense-making
1. What do my team and I notice about our HPS data? What is it telling us?
2. Should we be concerned?
3. Why do we have different interpretations of the data?
4. What is the problem/issue?
5. What do we need to take a closer look at?
6. What are our questions?
7. Where is the relevant data in the database? Who can help me find it?
2. My ability to analyse data and use this as a basis for an improvement plan

We need to ask ourselves these questions: Change agents
• Does our team have consistently high expectations for each other?
• What ways can we encourage each other to seek help and find our own answers?
• Have we been blaming others for something that we are not addressing?
• How open are we to critique, error and feedback?

My practice
Session 2: What does effective HPS facilitation look like?
• The best professional learning builds
willingness and capability to be agents of
change in school settings. Independent
expert led simulations, role plays and
peer-led learning challenge facilitators’
thinking and inspires a change in their
practice.
13 March 2017I Draft Edition
Case studies and
peer led learning
inspire confidence
and motivate action
among both schools
and workforce
Focus for national hui in 2016 was learning through example, expert led simulationsand case studies. Facilitators who attended these workshops experienced a statistically significant shift in their use of data and confidence to improve education, health and wellbeing outcomes in school communities.
The workshops provided learning opportunities for those who were keen to extend and improve their practice, as well as a pathway for those with a lower level of confidence or practice to achieve an agentic shift and greater impact with their schools
EXAMPLE COMMENTS ON LEARNING OUTCOMES:
• ignited ideas on how to best support school leaders to make changes for students and whanau
• highlighted new ideas to review and make sense of family/student voice• more ideas and insight on community engagement and ways Principals can get the
community involved• commitment to action to implement the learnings above

A group of facilitators have emerged as stand out performers. They are clear about the HPS community development approach, and their role in helping schools to critically evaluate their priorities.
13 March 2017I Draft Edition
Excellence is where the facilitator takes a ‘whole school’
community-based approach, uses the rubric and critical questioning to
identify clear priorities, and makes it easy to integrate and action health
and wellbeing priorities

• The best facilitators have a growth
mindset, have consistently high
expectations of themselves and others.
They believe that change can happen,
and actively engage school communities
in finding their own solutions.

Systematically collecting and analysing evidence of impact is crucial. It has enabled us to prove that excellence in practice leads to more, and better, outcomes.

Strong ‘trusted partner’ relationship with HPS facilitator1
Facilitator is in frequent contact and supporting school leaders to gather staff, student & family voices, unpack/explain evidence, identify desired outcome, link to resources, drive action, monitor and measure progress

Progress along the levels of Inquiry, monitor and measure, modify
3
Clear outcomes and evidence of agency for all- and impact on health, wellbeing and educational outcomes

School leaders value and recommend HPS to others5
Our research with schools confirms that a community development critical inquiry approach, as we have designed for HPS, delivers substantial benefits and outcomes to the broader school community

© Cognition Education 2016
Our review of results and feedback over the last year confirms the impact that HPS can have is now emerging. Sustained and positive results are achieved when there is a shared
understanding between the HPS facilitator and the school of priorities, what action will be taken, and the desired results. Effective facilitators use critical questioning via the tools and
processes created, and are dedicated and enthusiastic in their follow through to achieve impact.

Complete my plan
Your colleague will give you some feedback about your plan for change.
Developing the protocols and guidelines:
1. How do the two of you prepare for this conversation about the plan?
2. After reading the plan, how will you frame the feedback conversation?
Peer Feedback
• Choose a small number of priority areas for change and focus relentlessly on these.
• Ensure people are clear about the targets.
• Identify and reduce distractions that hinder change.
• Systematically review progress and impact of changes, but don’t expect overnight success.
• Attend to relationships at all times.
• Communicate clearly and widely with everyone involved in the change process.
Facilitating for change is not easy but…
Time for Reflection:
We know we are successful when we:• are confident and capable in analysing

our progress against local and national targets
• make changes in our practice based on evidence about what effective HPS facilitation looks like
