Theory of Institutional Transformation
From critical inquiry to collective accountability and sustainable change
A gap may exist between educational commitments and the lived experiences of students, families, and educators.
Examine institutional assumptions, power, policies, culture, and evidence.
Engage students, families, educators, and leaders in defining institutional challenges.
Reconsider decision-making, governance, practices, resources, and accountability.
Implement changes through shared leadership, professional learning, and community participation.
Examine institutional and student-level evidence, evaluate impact, and adjust.
Educational communities where institutional decisions uphold human dignity, expand opportunity, strengthen belonging, and support meaningful learning and development.
The model is iterative, not linear. Evidence and community feedback inform every stage.
