SERRANO, María del Carmen Martínez. Improving academic success: the measure and assessment from the educational inspection. Educ. Pesqui. [online]. 2020, vol.46, e223840.  Epub 24-Sep-2020. ISSN 1678-4634.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1678-4634202046223840.

This research is an attempt to discern how educational inspectors assess their work on improving the students’ academic success, through the implementation of the Inspection Program, and, especially, if there exist differences regarding certain personal variables. To this aim, we have written a questionnaire comprised of 27 items (Cronbach’s alpha = ,886). This paper focuses around the first factor, providing assistance to all members of the educational community. The questionnaire was completed by 98 inspectors from the 8 provinces which make up the Andalusian Autonomous Community (Spain). Results point to the need for the Inspection´s work to focus on direct attention to the members of the educational community by means of interviews, and also show how their efforts are less effective when carrying out actions related to isolated incidents or standardized reports.
