Framework
for Great Schools
|
The Framework for Great Schools is a
fundamental change to the way the Department of Education will partner with
our schools.
The Framework for Great Schools will –
|
>Allow
the district to develop a holistic, research-based approach to school support
and accountability that recognizes and celebrates what schools do every day.
Our approach will honor the fact that students are more than just a test
score.
>
Provide tailored support to schools and foster professional learning
communities.
>Hold
schools and the school system accountable for the shared goal of building
capacity to drive student achievement.
>
Replace the spirit of competition with one of collaboration and establish a
common language for improvement.
>Bring
together the strengths of schools and their communities to support students
throughout the school day and beyond.
>Advance
educational attainment by preparing every New York City public school
graduate to compete in the 21st -century workplace.

| Effective School Leadership
