    A STEM focused SSE would work well in any school to evaluate their teaching of science skills across all classes. Once the focus of improving teaching of science skills is identified, the next step would be to gather information regarding our current practices. This information could be collected from staff, parents and students. In our infant school, drawings could be used to assess understanding. This information could then be analysed and decisions made regarding the next step in improving student learning in this area. A plan would be written and shared to those in the school community to ensure everyone is aware of the changes occurring.  The plan would then be put into place within a reasonable timeframe, with support provided as needed (e.g. professional development opportunities provided, a professional learning community established etc.). Lastly, staff would monitor the actions taken as part of the plan and evaluate the impact of the interventions. The cycle could then begin again as needed, with changes implemented based on the learning needs of the students in the school.
