In considering the gathering of data for school improvement, it's critical to address the 'Why', 'How', and 'What'. This process should begin with a comprehensive needs assessment, employing tools like School Data Analysis and self-assessments to identify student needs and drive relevant changes. Engage your School Improvement Team in discussions about guiding factors like mission, vision, and beliefs, which influence data collection methods and strategies. By understanding these elements, schools can implement effective improvements tailored to their community's needs.
