What is SBDM?

The Short Answer: SBDM stands for Site Based Decision Making. It is a committee that helps set goals for the school and advises leadership in a collaborative way

The Long Answer: It is a process for decentralizing decisions to improve educational outcomes through a collaborative effort by which principals, teachers, campus staff, parents and community representatives work together to assess educational outcomes, determine goals and strategies and ensure that strategies are implemented and adjusted to improve student achievement.
