These reports will help principals identify key statistics for their school in a single place. The SEF Self Assessment report gives a visual representation of the school’s progress towards each of the fourteen elements of the SEF.

How can I use the Metrics by Location report to support my school self assessment?

As stated in the leading domain of the SEF, strong, strategic and effective leadership is the cornerstone of school excellence. Use of the summary data in the reports contained in the School Dashboard provides school leaders with a profile of their school community and an overview of progress towards achieving excellence in all elements of the School Excellence Framework.

Leaders in excellent schools ensure that operational issues, such as resource allocation and accountability requirements, serve the overarching strategic vision of the school community.
