Leading Data Inquiry
Schools that use data well make better decisions about learning and teaching. This program builds that capability in your leadership team.
Working with a core group of data champions over several months, your team will develop the knowledge, skills, and strategies to lead a structured inquiry cycle, identifying areas for inquiry, gathering targeted data, analysing evidence, and implementing and monitoring change.
About Leading Data Inquiry
Who is this for?
This program is designed for school leadership teams and data champions ready to move beyond data collection toward purposeful, evidence-informed practice. It suits schools at any stage of their data journey, from those establishing foundations to those looking to deepen and systematise existing practice.
The Program
Every engagement begins with a pre-planning session with your leadership team, followed by a full-day bespoke workshop for your data champions, covering:
-
Establishing a shared data culture and common language
-
Auditing current data collection and use
-
Identifying data needs at different levels of decision-making
-
Framing your first inquiry focus
-
Developing a plan for improvement.
From there, follow-up workshops are recommended to embed and sustain practice, with the number and frequency determined by your context and goals. An optional written report is available upon project completion.
Ongoing Support
Between sessions, participants have access to Dr Richardson for questions and support as they implement new practices.
Duration
The program typically runs over one semester. Condensed delivery is available for organisations with specific timeline requirements.
