Advisory Service and Quality Assurance Programme


The ISKA Advisory Service offers support and mentoring to members through advisory visits to a kindergarten. An experienced and qualified advisor will spend a day in your Kindergarten working directly on issues of interest or concern to you the teacher. This is followed by a discussion and both verbal and written feedback. To book an Advisory Visit contact advisory@steinerireland.org.

ISKA also provides a Quality Assurance Programme for Kindergartens, operated by our Advisory Service. The Quality Assurance Programme can be availed of by making an appointment with the Advisory Service for a Quality Assurance visit. Preparation for the visit is done by completing the ISKA Sensing Quality Self Evaluation Worksheet. On successful completion of the Quality Assurance Process, the Kindergarten will receive certification as a Quality Kindergarten. To book a Quality assurance visit send a request to qa@steinerireland.org

You may download the Sensing Quality Self Evaluation Worksheet, either to participate in the Quality Assurance Process or for your own use, here.

RATES FOR ADVISORY AND SENSING QUALITY VISITS - €50.00 for the first visit, €75.00 for the second visit, €100.00 for the third visit, in any calendar year.
