Peer visit reports
In this strand of work, the school practice model developed in P2P is adapted for valorisation of the three topics by trios (or triads) of schools, as recommended by P2P. The focus is on learners aged 14 to 16.

As a reminder the three topics of P2V are:

  • Digital resources
  • Digital literacy
  • New learning environments

Work in this strand is whole-school based and whole school self- and peer-assessment is an important part of the strand (work package 5). This is why partners in this strand worked closely with the inspection strand as schools could use the self-assessment framework developed by the inspectorates in P2P and P2V (or the Becta framework for assessing ICT), first self-assessing, then peer assessing.

Participants were Denmark (leader of the work package), Norway, UK (Northern Ireland), Spain (Catalonia), the Netherlands and Austria. The approach was for all to take the topic of new learning environment, then one curriculum subject. Each cluster of schools took one of the project topics and applies the P2P methodology to peer review innovative activities in these areas. The network is built up by developing the concept of self-presentation and peer review between school leaders developed in P2P and by sharing good practice using video and audio story telling case study approaches.

For visits (subject to budget), two people (head and ICT or a particular subject area) in each school visited two other schools and host one visit and inspectors join the visits. Visits cover both ICT assessment and all three topics.
