144 Mr. Neville asked the Minister for Education and Science the changes, if any, he proposes in the whole school evaluation; and when he will extend the process to all schools. [3147/00]
The implementation of whole school evaluation in all national and second level schools is currently the subject of discussions with the education partners. All aspects of the proposed WSE model will be outlined in a circular from my Department which will issue in due course to all schools and management authorities. The circular is presently being drafted and the views of the education partners including suggested amendments to the circular, will be sought prior to its publication. Transparency and partnership have permeated the development of WSE from the outset.
