Our Three Key Focus Areas
We focus on three core areas of operations to assist you in your certification process.
Change management
Change management is the process of adequately preparing an organization for upcoming change through smart planning.
Like all organizations, educational institutions undergo change regularly. The trick is to ensure that the change brings about improvement. The change could be due to new personnel, new educational requirements, new tech in the classrooms, or updates to textbooks or in teaching methods.
We will help you to follow the best process for implementing change in your school, show you how to embrace change, and help you promote change so you can excel.
Risk and safety
All schools should conduct risk assessment and risk management activities. Both are essential to the safety and security of your school.
We will help you by properly assessing the risks posed by threats to the school and then go on to help manage those risks, reducing the likelihood of harm in the process.
Risks to consider when assessing and mitigating a safety risk assessment include strategic risks, financial risks, operational risks, compliance risks, and risks to the reputation of your school.
Quality and sustainability
Quality and sustainability assessments for your school are among the most critical and important features of your certification process. This involves looking at your tools for ensuring quality operations as well as operations that are sustainable across a broad variety of indicators.
Sustainability in schools goes far beyond environmental stewardship. It can also include sustainability as it relates to teaching, administration, campus operations, and outreach.
Sustainability in your school means that the major activities that take place there are environmentally sound, socially just, and economically viable, and that all of this can take place for years to come. We also assess a school’s commitment to sustainability and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
How We Work
At Quality School Certificate, we are focused on helping improve schools in the primary, secondary, and vocational training areas.
Initiated through external requests from school administration personnel, we focus on creating quality and management practices and guarantee a high level of certification for audited schools.
Our work results in a certificate that takes into account the diversity of practices and the particular context of each institution.
