REVISED SCHOOL-BASED MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT TOOL (November 27, 2012) DepEd Order No.83,s.2012 embodied the IMPLEMENTING GUIDELINES ON THE REVISED SCHOOL-BASED MANAGEMENT(SBM)FRAMEWORK, ASSESSMENT PROCESS AND TOOL(APAT).This assessment tool underscores the four guiding principles of ACCESs (A Child-and Community-Centered Education Systems):(1).Principle of collective leadership(2).Principle of community-based learning(3).Principle of accountability for performance and results and (4).Principle of convergence to harness resources for education.
Parts I: Introduction The Revised School-Based Management (SBM) Assessment tool is guided by the four principles of ACCESs ( A Child- and Community –Centered Education Systems).The Indicators of SBM practice are contextualized on the ideals of an ACCESs school system. The unit of analysis is the school system which is classified as developing, maturing and advanced (accredited level). The SBM practice is ascertained by the existence of structured mechanisms, processes and practices in all indicators. A team of practitioners and experts from the district, division, region, and central office validates the self-study /assessment before a level of SBM practice is established. A school on the advanced level may apply for accreditation. The highest level, the “advanced” is a candidacy for accreditation. Part II. Basic School/Learning Center (LC) Information School/Learning Center: __________________________________________________________________________ Region/Division: __________________________________________________________________________ Name of School Head/LC Head: ____________________________________________________________________ Address:_______________________________________________________________________________________ Part III: Instruction to the Users: Please indicate using a check mark the extent of SBM practice for each indicator listed below( numbered)based on the validation team’s consensual agreements after systematic D-O-D ( Document Analysis-Observation-Discussion). On the other hand, for indicators with no evidence just indicate zero. Part IV. Rating Scale: 0- No evidence 1- Evidence indicates developing structures and mechanism are in place to demonstrate ACCESs 2-Evidence indicates planned practices and procedures are fully implemented and aligned to ACCESs 3- Evidence indicates practices and procedures satisfy quality standards. I. LEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCE A network of leadership and governance guides the education system to achieve its shared vision, mission and goals making them responsive and relevant to the context of diverse environments. A. Indicators 1. In place is a Development The development plan The development plan is The development plan is Plan (e.g. SIP) developed guided by the school’s vision, evolved through the shared enhanced with the community collaboratively by the mission and goal (VMG) is leadership of the school and performing the leadership stakeholders of the school and developed through the community stakeholders. roles, and the school providing community. leadership of the school and technical support. the participation of some invited community stakeholders. 2.

4. A leadership network facilitates communication between and among school and community leaders for informed decision-making and solving of school-community wide-learning problems. 5. A long term program is in operation that addresses the training and development needs of school and community leaders.
A network has been collaboratively established and is continuously improved by the school community.
The network actively provides stakeholders information for making decisions and solving learning and administrative problems.
The network allows easy exchange and access to information sources beyond the school community.
Developing structures are in place and analysis of the competency and development needs of leaders is conducted; result is used to develop a long term training and development program.
Leaders undertake training modes that are convenient to them (on-line, off-line, modular, group or home –based) and which do not disrupt their regular functions. Leaders monitor and evaluate their own learning progress.
Leaders assume responsibility for their own training and development. School community leaders working individually or in groups, coach and mentor one another to achieve their VMG.

PART V. SCORING INSTRUCTIONS 1. The four (4) principles were assigned percentage weights on the basis of their relative importance to the aim of school(improved learning outcomes and school operations); Leadership and Governance – 30% Curriculum and learning- 30% Accountability and Continuous Improvement – 25% Management of Resources -15% 2. Each principle has several indicators. Based on the results of D-O-D (Document Analysis, Observation, Discussion), the evidence is summarized and consensual rating is arrived at ….What rating would one give to each indicator;
3. Rate the items by checking the appropriate boxes. These are the points earned by the school for the specific indicator. The rating scale is: 0- No evidence 1- Evidence indicates early or preliminary stages of implementation 2- Evidence indicates planned practices and procedures satisfy quality standards 3- Evidence indicates practices and procedures satisfy quality standards 4. Assemble the Rubrics rated by the respondents ; edit them for errors like double entries or incomplete responses; 5. Count the number of check marks in each indicator and record in the appropriate box inside the summary table for the use area/standard rated; 6. Multiply the number of check marks in each column by the points(1-3) 7. Get the average rating for each principle by dividing the total score by the number of indicators of the principle; 8. Record the average ratings for the principle in the Summary Table for the computation of the General average. 9. Multiply the rating for each principle by its percentage weight to get weighted average rating. 10. To get the total rating for the four principle, get the sum of all the weighted ratings. The value derived is the school rating based on DOD; 11. The level of practice will be computed based on the criteria below: 60% based on improvement of learning outcomes; 40% according to the validated practices using DOD 12. The resulting score will be interpreted as: PART VI. DESCRIPTION OF SBM LEVEL OF PRACTICE The resulting levels are described as follows: 0.5-1.4- Developing 1.5-2.4- Maturing 2.5-3.5- Advanced LEVEL I. DEVELOPING- developing structures and mechanism with acceptable level and extent of community participation and impact on learning outcomes. LEVEL II.MATURING – introducing and sustaining continuous improvement process that integrates wider community participation and significantly improve performance and learning outcomes. LEVEL III. ADVANCED (ACCREDITED)-Ensuring the production of intended outputs/outcomes and meeting all standards of a system fully integrated in the local community and is self-renewing and self-sustaining.
