FRAMEWORK AND PROTOCOL
ACISC™ International Accreditation is fully and entirely developed by ACISC™, reflecting our mission, values, diverse membership, and our Code of Ethics. Educational leaders developed the protocol based on research of school development and improvement, with feedback from more than 200 schools in 50 countries.
There are four drivers for our protocol:
PURPOSE & DIRECTION
The implementation of the mission, vision and values, including the development of global citizenship, as defined by the school.
WELL-BEING
Protection, safety, security and overall wellness.
LEARNING
The nature and quality of learning and the resulting progress made by the students.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP
As defined by the ACISC™ mission and definition of global citizenship.
Furthermore, it is characterized by:
- the inclusion of recommendations made by the International Taskforce on Child Protection, embracing the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the UN Declaration of Human Rights
- the ACISC™ Community Survey, managed by ACISC™ research experts, which allows your school to include specific questions for an annual climate survey
- a strong focus on futures learning
- the promotion of sustainable school improvement, innovation and the research-centred school
- a strong foundation based on research and developing pedagogies
- online tools for collaborative planning and writing reports
