FAQ

Frequently Asked

×

Here are some of the most commonly asked questions about this product.

The Educational Leader Diary shows how critical reflection is being used within the team to improve outcomes for children. It demonstrates and captures evidence of the role of the Educational Leader and the work they are doing to support Educators.

The front pages of the Diary are jam packed with tools to support you in your role such as QA1 evidence summary, QIP overview, compliance cheatsheets, and more. It keeps records of your role for Assessment and Rating and provides a great overview so you can be sure all educators are getting the support they need. The weekly checklist also helps you keep on top of your priorities.

To get the most from the Educational Leader Diary and show quality improvement, you should spend some time pre-planning in terms of who are the Focus Educators / Rooms of the day or week and the Meetings/Orientations/Training you’ve booked in. For example, in the Diary you should be able to see all Educators are supported, Educators requiring additional support are given this time, and meetings and training are planned to provide the best outcomes for Educators while considering ratios.

The Reflective Discussions from these are recorded and you can clearly see how they have been used to complete the Professional Development Requirements section and Family/Community Communication.

You should also link back to the Reflective Discussions when improving policies, procedures, and QIP and when planning Agendas for meetings or training. You will also link back to these discussions when reflecting at the end of the week.

The Educational Leader Diary like most of Butler Diaries have been designed with a specific role in mind and supports you in the specific compliance requirements of that role. Therefore, if you wear multiple hats, it is best to use the Diaries specific for those roles. For example, an Educational Leader who is also a Room Leader would use the Educational Leader Diary and Weekly Programming and Reflection Diary.

"Each diary that we use is laid out in such a way that ALL compliance and record keeping is there - it simply needs to be filled out - each individual diary ticks all the compliance boxes - all the educators have to do is fill them out - it is really simple and easy to understand - This ensures everything is easy to find and on show for spot checks etc. Also no need to go back and fill in missing gaps as everything is there."

Common feedback that we hear is that our Diaries keep everything is one place. With the pressure of Assessment and Rating and so much paperwork, it can make staying organised difficult. We reduce compliance confusion and support you in keeping everything together - particularly handy now with reduced time notices before Assessment and Rating now in effect.

“Makes being a EL easier. I use this diary in conjunction with the Weekly program and reflection diary. Both are excellent for covering all aspects of program and EL, particularly during A&R. Our assessor was able to review much of my work via the diaries. These diaries help in so many ways!”

These resources are great places to get your questions answered. You can also always get in touch if you can’t find your answer below.
