Effective Schools Service


The AISNSW Effective Schools Service (ESS) offers schools the opportunity to form a long-term professional partnership with an experienced AISNSW consultant.

Engaging in a robust process to make your school more effective, over a sustained period, can yield positive results. These include more effective school practices, improved student outcomes and an increase in the predictability of student success, year to year.

What do school leaders say?

"Until we got involved in this program we just didn’t know how to make whole school change happen."

"We have been on a cultural change journey for three years. ESS has given us both a shape and purpose to our work."

"A key lesson for my school executive and myself has been the importance of professional development supporting the change process at every step of the way."
