Internal Needs Assessment Handbook
Published November 2012

The Internal Needs Assessment Handbook intends to assist schools in examining ways they can most effectively increase educator capacity and improve student achievement. The handbook uses a research-based framework for assessing school leadership, instructional strategies, and systems practices. It includes instructions for an eight-step process for measuring the extent to which a school currently implements these practices.
