About us – NSI Partnerships

Our Approach

NSI’s approach focuses on encouraging sustainable educational change. Our approach is not fragmented or an “add-on” to the core work of the school; instead, it involves evidence-based planning and decision-making, which are integral aspects of the makeup of the school. These efforts are coherent and interrelated at both the teacher and organisational levels, ensuring the gains made are sustained over time.

System-Wide Improvement, Monitoring, and Evaluation

Our surveys and services inform the development of school improvement plans, provide professional development and resources that develop skills related to collaborative inquiry, and provide data to inform evidence-based decision-making about organisational change.

Assessing School Climate

Our School Climate Suite® is comprised of research-based, robust, reliable, and empirically validated surveys designed to assess the perceptions of school members: staff, teachers, students and parents/caregivers. Using the School Climate Suite® to guide improvement brings changes at the level of culture and promotes and benefits the whole school population rather than diagnosis and treatment of individuals.

Assessing Classroom Climate

NSI’s Classroom Climate Questionnaire (CCQ) provides an economical and effective way to gather student feedback about their experiences of the learning environment. The CCQ offers a meaningful framework to help teachers plan targeted improvement efforts, initiate discussions with students about learning (metacognition), and work with students to improve and co-construct the environment.

Our Research

NSI’s programs and instruments result from research undertaken at Curtin University. The tools, processes, and research used to substantiate the effectiveness of our programs have been published in quality journals, including the Journal of School Leadership, the British Journal of Educational Research, Improving Schools, Learning Environment Research, and the Journal of Educational Research. .
