All Queensland state school principals are invited to be trained as peer reviewers and participate in a school review. Being a peer reviewer is an exceptional leadership development opportunity that helps to support the high standard and credibility of the school review process.

Interested principals are encouraged to attend the 2-day School Improvement Tool program. For more information, contact the SRR.

External reviewers

External reviewers are from outside the department and are contracted by the SSR to take part in reviews.

Many external reviewers are former Queensland state school principals or have served in senior officer positions within the department. Others come from non-state schools, interstate or higher education. All external reviewers bring with them a strong understanding of school improvement and educational leadership.

Invitations to offer for external reviewers are published on QTenders. Interested parties can register their details online.

For more information, contact the SRR.
