Looking at Our School (LAOS)

Looking at Our School 2022: A Quality Framework for Post-Primary Schools is a framework that provides a shared understanding of what effective and highly effective learning, teaching, leadership and management practices look like in the Irish school system. It follows on from the 2016 publication of the same name and provides a unified and coherent set of standards for two dimensions of the work of schools:

• Learning and Teaching
• Leadership and Management

The document serves as a tool to help schools identify areas of strength and areas needing improvement, guiding them towards enhancing the quality of education and ensuring the best possible learning outcomes for students. Through this evaluation process, schools can develop action plans to address any identified shortcomings and make informed decisions for continuous improvement.
