Abstract
The article discusses the formulation of priority goals of a school in line with its developmental vision and the subsequent implementation of those in the classroom. It deals with the process of setting crucial teaching and learning goals at the school level, at the level of working groups and at the level of individual teachers. The article touches upon the process of devising action plans valid for entire working groups, as well as individual goals set within the same framework with the aim of fulfilling the school vision of the future educational work. Two goals are highlighted in the field of language learning: improving literacy as a learning goal and developing learning and working strategies as an educational goal. Within this framework special emphasis is put on developing reading comprehension and monitoring general student’s progress in developing all language skills by means of a language portfolio. Activities will be carried out within the project set by Ministry of Education and Sport of Republic Slovenia, which is System of Quality Assessment and Assurance in the Field of Education (as part of Operational Programme for Human Resources Development for the period 2007-2013). The article also presents the process of gathering and analyzing the data, students' progress, and critical assessment of the process of self-evaluation, bearing in mind the overall goal of empowering the teachers and schools for the assessment and assurance of a quality learning process.
