​​​​​​School and Region Reviews (SRR) offers capability development opportunities for school leaders and other staff on the School Improvement Tool (SIT) (PDF, 1.4MB) and school reviews.

Principals who previously completed the 2-day National School Improvement Tool (NSIT) program and have not completed the SIT conversion program are required to complete the online peer reviewer refresher course to retain their eligibility as a peer reviewer.

Alternatively, principals are welcome to attend the 2-day SIT program for a deeper understanding of the new tool and report writing process.
