Qatar: SEC asks pvt schools for action plan
DOHA: All private schools in the country have been asked to develop and implement an action plan to meet the required quality standards as a pre-requisite for obtaining the National School Accreditation being made mandatory by the Supreme Education Council (SEC).
The School Evaluation Office at SEC's Evaluation Institute conducted a training workshop for private schools on how to prepare self-evaluation studies for the National School Accreditation.
The workshop at La Cigale hotel was attended by representatives of 61 private schools.
Besides, the programme is meant to provide high-quality educational services that preserve the students' rights to access to better education and maintain the rights of their families seeking private schools for their children.
The areas of the National School Accreditation are: School leadership and management, learning performance and environment, management resources, learners development and community contribution.
Private schools, prior to the National Accreditation, must carry out self-evaluation studies by focusing on four main pillars, namely: School identification and description, evaluation of its learning outputs, accurate analysis of the National School Accreditation standards in its five aspects, and the existence of a school performance enhancement action plan.
Schools must be committed to four steps prior to the entitlement of the National School Accreditation: The first step is to submit a candidacy for the accreditation, then to prepare a school self-evaluation study covering 18 months of performance.
The third step is a visit carried out by a team of the national School Accreditation to the candidate school for three or four days.
The procedure, finally, is completed by a recommendation of the inspecting team to grant accreditation to the school for the next three or five years, based on the recommendation.
The School Evaluation Office also held a training workshop for its staff on National School Accreditation mechanisms and procedures in private schools, in the Evaluation Institute's auditorium.
