The report has four parts. Part I describes how the quality criteria can be used for planning and implementation of school improvement initiatives at a school site. Part II is a guide to be used by schools in conducting a self-study. Part III describes the methodology and procedures of PQR, the application of the quality criteria to the school's curricular and instructional program, and the means by which suggestions in the Report of Findings might be developed. Part IV contains the criteria that consist of narrative statements portraying the central features of high quality, followed by a series of concrete descriptions indicative of each quality. A review team may consist of persons who are outside the district, as is the case in a formal PQR, or the team may be made up of school staff and parents who wish to conduct an informal self-study.
