What is it?\"\"<\/a><\/h3>\n

“Self-evaluation involves a continuous process of reflection and development“.<\/em><\/cite><\/p>\n

(Realising the Ambition<\/a>, Education Scotland, 2020, p. 85)<\/p>\n

“Self-evaluation is central to continuous improvement.\u00a0 It enables care settings to reflect on what they are doing so they can get to know what they do well and identify what they need to do better…\u00a0 Self-evaluation establishes a baseline – a starting point – from which you can put in place plans with clear priorities for actions that will improve outcomes for people using your service.\u00a0 Used effectively, continuous self-evaluation helps monitor progress and measure the impact that your changes have made on outcomes – the differences made – for people.”<\/cite><\/p>\n
