Professional Development
How can we create the conditions for educators to collaborate more effectively so that each student thrives? What are practical tools that can be used to build equitable schools?
The Data Wise Improvement Process is an eight-step model that guides teams of educators to work collaboratively to improve teaching and learning through evidence-based analysis. This leadership institute will help you develop the habits of mind needed to use collaborative data inquiry to build more equitable schools. We use the step-by-step Data Wise Improvement Process as our lead framework and explore the essential equity questions to address at each step.
This program will prepare you to plan a thoughtful launch of this inquiry process in your own setting.
"In responding to the pandemic and its aftermath, schools have an opportunity to shore up educators’ capacity for working together to address gaps in learning. This is what Data Wise is all about." Kathryn Boudett, Faculty Co-Chair

Hosted at 41 St Andrews Place, Melbourne 4, your school team will spend five days interacting with the Data Wise teaching team and peers from diverse settings around Australia, who are all committed to learning how to lead collaborative inquiry.
This program will prepare you to lead collaborative analysis of a wide range of data sources, including periodic formative assessments, daily student work, observation of classroom practice, and standardised tests. In a hands-on, interactive format, you will learn and use tools to present, discuss, and act on data.
