Data informed schools: Creating a unified approach

How a shift from relying solely on hard data to using a broader range of data types supports real-time learning and more targeted instruction across school phases.

At Windermere Preparatory School, Jamie Davidoff (Primary Years Programme Coordinator) and Mariko Bliss (Middle Years Coordinator) describe how various types of data are used to support real-time learning, shifting from a reliance on hard data to a more holistic approach. They emphasize how this broader perspective enhances student support across phases. Kimberly Souza (IB Teacher), along with Cally Laitinen and Rebecca Oihus (Second Grade Teachers), share how they use multiple forms of data within lessons to tailor instruction to specific student needs.
