School Performance Management

Essential to the creation of lasting and meaningful school improvement is the development of systems to measure and manage on-going school performance. Through our School Performance Management practice, ERS works with school leaders to establish:

• Clear goals linked to school plans and overall strategies
• School-level standards that can be measured and applied to:

• Student, teacher, and school performance
• Resource allocation that supports instructional improvement
• Instructional practice, development, support, and supervision

• Rubrics that measure the level of implementation and progress against school-level standards
• Incentive systems and consequences at the central and school level related to standards-based performance outcomes
• A collaborative examination process of outcomes vs. standards
• A measurement adjustment process based on improvements and results
