# Set Up the SIAMS SEF Module for Church of England Schools

> Enable the SIAMS SEF module for your Church of England school and use the inspection-ready two-page summary print format for SIAMS inspection.

The SIAMS SEF module gives your leadership team a structured space to self-evaluate against the Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools framework. Follow the steps below to enable the module and begin working through your self-evaluation.

<Note>
  Initial setup requires Administrator access.
</Note>

## Quick Start

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enable the module">
    Go to **Administration > Modules** and enable **SIAMS SEF**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Assign an SEF Manager">
    Go to **Administration > Users** and assign the **SEF Manager** role to the relevant senior leaders.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the module">
    Reload the page and select **SIAMS SEF** from the sidebar to open the module.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete the context and previous inspection sections">
    Record your school's contextual statements and document progress against the priorities from your last SIAMS inspection.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Work through the framework">
    Navigate to each SIAMS framework area in turn. For each criterion, record your evaluation and optionally add supporting evidence. Once you have evaluated the criteria, write the four-part area summary: actions taken, impact of actions, current strengths, and priorities for development.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Inspection-Ready Print Format

When preparing for SIAMS inspection, use the dedicated inspection print format:

* Select the **Inspection Print** option from within the module.
* This produces a two-page summary without grade evaluations, meeting the specific requirements of the SIAMS inspection process.

<Tip>
  Keep your SEF updated throughout the year. Regular review of each framework area makes the document genuinely useful for school improvement, not just inspection preparation.
