QUALITY INDICATORS FOR SNE

According to a draft legislation now under discussion in Estonian Parliament pre-school childcare institutions, general education schools and vocational schools are obliged to conduct internal evaluation. The draft provides that an educational institution shall prepare a complete internal evaluation report on institutions activities at least once in three study years. Internal evaluation would mean analysing schooling and education and management, taking into account the aims of the educational institution and also analysing the efficiency of the institution for making decisions for the future development. The internal evaluation report shall be based on criteria, which define the fields to be evaluated. The criteria as well as data on institution’s activities include quality indicators on special needs education.
