We do this with an increased focus on: - developing evidence-based policy to improve student achievement and support teachers - risk-based monitoring of Teacher Accreditation Authorities and schools. In the words of NESA's CEO, David de Carvalho, "...we are focused on integrating the various aspects of our work - curriculum, assessment, teaching quality and school standards - in order to deliver better outcomes for students.
