Electronic Personal Education Plan completion guidance
11. Quality assurance of the ePEP
Once you have completed the PEP, using the DT: Click when Completed button, the system will send a notification to the Virtual School to alert them that all sections are complete.
On receipt of this notification the Virtual School will quality assure the document and give a rating of RED, AMBER or GREEN, based on the quality of information within the PEP. The Quality Assurance Framework used by the Virtual School to assess the quality of a PEP is outlined in a separate document which can be found in the Child Menu options - documents section of the PEP and is sent out annually to all Designated Teachers. The Rating and date of the quality assurance for the previous PEP can readily be found in the box on the left hand side of the home page.
- If a GREEN rating has been given it indicates an effective plan which will ensure good outcomes for the C/YP and all information has been completed.
- If the PEP has been rated AMBER you will receive feedback in the BLACK Quality Assurance Tab at the end of the document identifying what is missing or what needs to be considered to improve the next PEP.
- If the PEP is marked RED, feedback given will need to be fully completed before the virtual school can sign off the PEP.
- The VS Caseworker will contact you directly when a PEP has been rated as RED to offer further support in ensuring the PEP is effective and is of a high enough quality to ensure improvement to outcomes for the C/YP.
