Evaluative thinking in the school planning process
NSW Public Schools engage in a four-year planning cycle, governed by the School Excellence policy.
The disciplines of evaluative thinking are woven throughout the school planning process. These include:
- starting with self-assessment and consultation
- planning with the end in mind
- selecting evidence-based strategies
- regular monitoring and evaluation
- the plan as a living document.
