School Development Planning

Introduction
The School Development and Accountability (SDA) framework was introduced by the Education Bureau (EDB) in the 2003/04 school year in supporting schools to implement school-based management (SBM).  The framework emphasises that school self-evaluation (SSE) is a core element of schools for their perpetual improvement. SSE, complemented by school inspections (including External School Review and Focus Inspection), helps promote continuous self-improvement in schools through putting in place a systematic Planning-Implementation-Evaluation cycle.  Building on the experience gained from the existing SSE and making reference to the suggestions made by the Impact Study on the Implementation of the Current Phase of the SDA Framework for Enhancing School Development in Hong Kong, EDB has further enhanced the SDA framework to strengthen SBM.
