There are no schools participating in whole school evaluation at present. A total of 35 schools participated in the WSE pilot project during 1998 and 1999. A report on this project was circulated to all schools and to the education partners in November 1999. A circular letter on WSE is in preparation, dealing with the implementation of WSE. It is not possible to indicate the number of schools that will participate in whole school evaluation in the future.
