Summarizing for Improvement

Circulate this sheet and ask teachers to (a) indicate their classroom self-assessment score, and (b) nominate at least one, and up to three, Elements for improvement for their classroom.

Produce a mean score for the school, and define one or two elements for focus that would be of greatest value for the whole school.

Define a date (in 2-3 months) when you will repeat this exercise and reassess.
