What is an Equity Audit?

EducationPlus has developed an Equity Audit to provide your school an unbiased view of how they are meeting the needs of all students and staff by providing equitable access and opportunities for learning and wellbeing.

The EdPlus equity audit process is intended to equip schools with information that can be used as part of their continuous improvement plan.​

The audit is meant to capture snapshots of four key areas – classroom, structures and systems, public spaces and print materials - from across the building over a brief period of time.​ Team members are assigned a specific area of focus for the audit and will collect "snapshots" of the assigned focus. This information is collected in an "album" to provide the school with a broad view of the four key areas.​  

The audit is not a judgement on the school, but an observation of practices, policies and procedures. ​The school/district determines next steps following the audit. ​
