Extending High Standards Across Schools (EHSAS)

EHSAS is a government initiative designed to raise student achievement by promoting excellence among the country's schools.

The Extending High Standards Across Schools initiative is designed to improve student outcomes by making funding available for schools to develop and extend their proven practice in collaboration with other schools. The emphasis is on developing professional networks and improving the evidence base around processes and practices that contribute to improved student outcomes.

The principles behind EHSAS are to raise student achievement by:

  • promoting excellence in the school system; and
  • supporting high standards.

The objective of EHSAS is to improve student outcomes by assisting schools to further develop effective processes and practices with other schools. A key element of this initiative will be schools working collaboratively to extend their practice.
