Hibberdene Academy prepares for evaluation

John Alexander is set to be the academy's facilitator and the school looks forward to working with him.

HIBBERDENE Academy welcomed John Alexander to the school recently. As a member of the Independent Schools’ Association, a compulsory internal evaluation of the school is conducted every five years. The process involves an evaluation of teaching methods, curriculum controls, staffing and all things to do with school evaluation around the theme: ‘Are we the best we can be?’

The process is controlled by an Independent Quality Assurance Agency (IQAA) with much experience in these evaluations. Parents and pupils are also canvassed for opinions of the school and together with comprehensive feedback from IQAA, this can only benefit Hibberdene Academy.
