Practical guidance for the people responsible for institutional partnerships, quality preparation and education operations. These resources help teams frame questions, organise information and keep a useful record of decisions and actions.
Clarify the provision concerned before collecting material. The scope and evidence guides address legal identity, activities, sites, document ownership and the difference between a written policy and a record of its use.
Defining school certification scope · Preparing a school evidence file
Give prospective partners a brief they can assess. Identify the objective, contribution, responsibilities and questions requiring a decision. Use the partner-checking guide when preparing for an appointment or renewal.
An institution needs current records and a way to identify material changes. The evidence-register and continuing-review guides focus on ownership, review triggers and follow-through.
Building an evidence register · Continuing review and material changes
Membership, directory inclusion and certification answer different questions. Read the status guide to distinguish the organisation making a decision and the effect of its public record.
If your institution communicates a certification claim, check the legal holder, scope and current status before using the claim in public material.
Membership, listings and certification · Communicating certification scope
Use the partnership brief to organise a proposed collaboration, the evidence register to locate and maintain supporting material, and the action plan to assign internal improvement work.
The files are IESG working resources. They can be adapted to the institution's task and should be used alongside any applicable official requirements.
The guides distinguish practical methods, illustrative examples and external requirements. Where a topic depends on a formal scheme, the relevant official source is linked so that readers can check the current position.
An article does not establish an institution's eligibility, approval or certification status. It supports the reader's preparation and directs them to the body responsible for any formal determination.
Browse by the task you need to carry out: scope, evidence, partnerships, public status or continuing review. Each guide links to a related tool or service where it can help with the next step.
If a general guide does not resolve your operational need, describe the task and the support required. A defined institutional engagement can address the particular activity and information involved.
