Official rubric
Comprehensive, detailed, and clear behavior policy is developed and applied fairly and regularly with almost all students. School tracks behavioral issues (attendance, violence, bullying, profanity, harassment, disrespect) with appropriate, effective and consistently applied solutions which reflected positively on most students’ sense of justice and equality.
School behavior policy/ procedures are non-comprehensive (do not include code of conduct or penalties). Dissemination and implementation of such, and treating behavioral offences are discontinuous with impact on improving behaviors of some students.
The school has unclear behavior procedures and monitoring that are minimally applied.
School response
School evidence
Choose evidence that shows what the school does. The same evidence can support more than one standard without uploading the file again.
Reading existing governed sources; no second evidence database is created.
What the evidence shows
What does the evidence tell us? Record each finding clearly, connect it to supporting evidence, then submit it for review.
This layer interprets evidence; it never changes official QNSA text.
School judgement
Compare the reviewed findings with the QNSA rubric. A responsible person chooses the judgement and explains why; the system does not choose it automatically.
Judgement is human-owned and grounded in governed findings plus the official QNSA rubric.
Strengths · Growth areas
What should we keep doing? What needs to improve? Use the findings and judgement, then ask for each point to be reviewed.
This layer is grounded in professional judgement and governed findings.
Improvement action · Impact
Convert standard gaps into trackable actions, then record implementation impact.

Review & challenge
The reviewer challenges the quality of reasoning; the system never issues an accreditation judgement automatically.
