What is the Hong Kong Schools Self-Evaluation Network (HKSSEN)?

This is what Archie McGlynn, the Network Director says:

"HKSSEN is a coming together of schools that are committed to working and sharing to improve our schools for the benefit of students, parents and staff. The HKSSEN aims to share and learn from best practice in Hong Kong and internationally. This innovative network is for schools that:
  • Know that the starting point for an effective school is a readiness to improve through learning and self-evaluation -- to be 'a learning school'.
  • Learn from examples of best practice.
  • Encourage sharing of ideas, common issues and concerns.
  • Look beyond their 'school gate' for ideas and inspiration as well as looking at what is happening within their schools.
  • Wish to make use of professional advice, and ways of conducting self-evaluation and school improvement.
  • Know that external school review and school self-evaluation are 'two sides of the same coin' and both seek to bring about school improvement through development and accountability.
And most important of all, network schools know that the most important people in a  school are the pupils and students -- we are driven by the desire to put our young people first".

The network is designed to support your school to take forward school development and accountability under the framework of school-based management -- leading to systematic school self-evaluation (SSE) to enable you to answer the questions like How good is our School? How do we know how good it is? A bonus of a systematic approach to SSE is that you will be well-prepared for external school review (ESR). You will be given opportunities and challenges to provide answers to questions such as:
  • What are we aiming to do in our school and what have we set out to achieve for our students? Are we 'a confident school?'
  • How well are we meeting our aims?
  • How do we know how successful we are as a school in meeting our aims?
  • What are our strengths and where can we do better?
  • How good are we at taking account of the views of our students, parents and staff?
  • How well do we perform in the Four Domains set out in EDB's Performance Indicator Framework?
  • Once we have answers to the above questions, how do we go about improving our students' performance?
　
　

An Introduction to HKSSEN in Chinese

Following successful visits to Beijing and Shanghai, network members felt it would be good to have a summary of our aims in Chinese so two versions are given below.  Thanks to Principal Tam of Tsung Tsin PSK and Vice Principal Leung of Lok Sin Tong Wong Chung Ming SS for undertaking the translation.

　

香港學校自我評估網絡

什麼是香港學校自我評估網絡(如欲獲取詳細資料，可電郵Archie McGlynn該網絡總監archie9@sky.com或瀏覽右列網址www.hkedb.org.hk/hkssen Hong Kong Schools Self Evaluation Network, HKSSEN)？

該網絡總監Archie McGlynn有以下的解說：

「香港學校自我評估網絡」創立的目的是為了結合香港學校一起，致力改進學校及分享成功經驗，為學生、家長和教職員營造一個理想的教學環境。它的服務宗旨在於分享香港和國際上最佳學校的成功經驗。這個創新的網絡為會員學校提供一個平台。

l          知道要成為一所「學習型學校」、有效能的學校，必須要透過學習和自我評估來改進學校。

l          從成功的經驗中學習。

l          互相分享教學理念、常見的問題和關注的事項。

l          從其他學校吸收新靈感，去檢視學校的現況。

l          聽取一些專業的建議，進行學校自我評估和自我完善。

網絡學校會員明白到在學校內最重要的是學生 --- 我們一貫希望把年輕人放在首位。

這個網絡的設計是為了支援學，在學校發展與校本管理的問責制框架下，運用網絡上資源，實行學校自我評估，為疑問找尋答案。例如: 怎樣才是好學校、我們可以怎樣辦好學校呢？學校自我評估就好像一份獎勵，使學校能在校外評核前做足最好準備。遇到機會及挑戰時，學校能把問題找到答案：

l          如何達到學校的目標，以及如何提升學生的學習？

l          我們是否一所信譽良好的學校呢？

l          如何滿足我們的目標？

l          當我訂立目標後，學校的成功準則又是什麼呢？

l          什麼是我們的強項? 我們可以在哪裡做得更好？

l          我們在教育局的表現指標及自評架構的四個範疇中，要怎樣去發揮出好表現?

l          每當找到以上問題答案的同時，怎樣才可提升學生的表現?
