Our next ISLES Professional Learning event is around the corner! 👉 14th November 2024, 7-8pm SGT on Zoom 👈 Knowing the importance of data, ISLES has spent the last three years collecting statistics and information from international schools spanning different sizes, countries, curricula, and demographics through the State of Student Support Services survey. During this interactive workshop, we will look into the data from this survey, look at how it compares with our schools, and how it may impact our next steps as leaders of educational support. ISLES Professional Learning events are open to ISLES members, as well as any school leaders who are interested. Feel free to bring a professional plus one! 📅 RSVP: bit.ly/stateofSS ✍ Not yet a member? Sign up here: https://lnkd.in/ga6vhq8V 💡 Please note that to have full access to the survey data, your school's Director of Student Support Services needs to have completed the survey for this year. If you haven't already, or have questions about this, please email info@islescollaborative.org and we will help you out! #inclusion #studentsupport #educationalleadership #learningenhancement #datadrivenlearning #datainformedinstruction #data
