In Scotland the 2015 publication entitled How good is our school? provides a suite of quality indicators that support staff in all sectors to look inwards, to scrutinise their work and evaluate what is working well for learners and what could be improved. It is a key aspect of the Scottish approach to school improvement. The framework is designed to be used to support self-evaluation and reflection by practitioners at all levels. Since 1996, How good is our school? has become a nationally and internationally recognised brand, which underpins effective self-evaluation as the starting point for school improvement.
The third edition of How good is our school? from 2007 has been updated, and the new edition is available for download on the Education Scotland website. This edition includes indicators for personalised support and ensuring wellbeing, equality and inclusion.
