Cognia designs evidence-gathering instruments in alignment with Cognia’s standards to provide schools the opportunity to understand their strengths and areas for improvement. Cognia’s standards are research-based, practitioner-informed, and regularly reviewed. The standards describe critical elements within a school that ensure high-quality teaching and learning and overall organizational effectiveness. Furthermore, the standards reinforce four key characteristics of effective schools: culture of learning, leadership for learning, engagement of learning, and growth in learning.
