How a unified approach to data collection and use can support smoother student transitions across school phases, highlighting the role of middle leadership and the impact of meaningful, lesson-level data practices.

At Windermere Preparatory School, Dr. Brenda Fields (Assistant High School Director and IB Programme Coordinator) shares how the school developed a more unified approach to data collection and use, aimed at creating a seamless student journey across phases. She highlights the pivotal role of middle leadership in driving this change and reflects on the meaningful impact already seen through more intentional data practices. Allison Barron (IB Dance Teacher) provides a subject-specific example of how data is used in the classroom, with further insight from Veronica, an IB Dance student, on how this has influenced her learning experience.
