The three levels of self-review diagram text
Strategic
- long term and focused on key goals related to the school’s vision and strategic plan
Example 1: Review of the school’s charter vision and values statements
Example 2: Review of progress and achievement for target groups of students
Example 3: Review of facilities and resources to provide for curriculum delivery in an identified area for development
Example 4: Review of impact of teacher professional development in a curriculum area identified for development
Regular
- focused on “business as usual”. They are smaller, focused and ongoing, feeding regular data into the strategic self-review
Example 1: Mid-year budget review
Example 2: Review of student conferences and reporting to parents
Example 3: Review of mathematics achievement data, relating to school annual achievement targets
Example 4: Review of Board Policies & Procedures
Emergent
- are in response to unplanned events or issues as they arise. They are spontaneous reviews but should fit with overall goals and link to other reviews
Example 1: Review of behaviour management and bullying procedures in response to behaviour concerns
Example 3: Review of assessment practices as a result of new assessment tools becoming available
Example 2: Health and safety review as a result of a series of playground accidents
