The Key Work of School Boards is a framework of eight interrelated action areas to focus and guide school boards in their work. The Key Work components are:
Vision
Standards
Assessment
Accountability
Alignment
Climate
Collaboration and Community Engagement
Continuous Improvement
The purpose of the Key Work is to help school boards engage their communities and improve student achievement through effective governance. The better these eight essential areas are integrated into a systematic process, the better the results will be for all stakeholders.
