Oide adopts model of professional learning for school self-evaluation developed by EQI Research Director Dr Shivaun O'Brien
Speaking about the new model, Dr Mary Nihill, Director of Leadership in Oide said
“The Oide Leadership Division is delighted to work and collaborate with Dr Shivaun O’Brien on the design of this professional learning programme for schools. We very much welcome this partnership with DCU and the willingness of Dr O’Brien to share her knowledge, experience, expertise, and work with Oide for the benefit of schools seeking to improve through the implementation of school self-evaluation.”
Dr Shivaun O’Brien said
“I am pleased to work with Oide, and in particular the Leadership Division, as they are committed to providing the highest standard of professional learning experiences for teachers and schools in Ireland. In DCU we always aim to undertake research that has real impact on society, and it is wonderful to see that Oide recognises the usefulness of this research and this model of professional learning for SSE. I look forward to working with Oide and seeing this approach to professional learning for SSE being rolled out to more schools across Ireland.”
