Benefits for the school
The school will gain a unique and objective view of the quality of learning in the school and how teachers are enabling young people to learn effectively. Review findings are useful in planning the longitudinal and multi-layered culture shift needed to grow creative, independent learners. The review process provides rigorous evidence of the school’s quality of learning
