In the 1990s, the focus was on self-assessment of a particular school and the concept of the school curriculum and the internal expert assessment of the school environment were of crucial importance. At the beginning of the 2000s, the key areas of expert assessment of school education in Germany were established and they still remain the same today. It has also been found that the development of expert assessment in school education in Germanу has led to its institutional establishment, namely in the laws on general secondary education of the majority of German federal states. It has been found that the key areas of expert assessment in school education in Germany are as follows: international as well as national and regional comparative research on students’ performance (PISA, TIMSS, DESI, ELEMENT, LAU); examination of educational standards that determine the level of subject competence at each stage of school education; expert assessment of school-leaving examinations; school self-assessment; external assessment inspections and national reports on the state of education in the country. The compulsory procedure of external expert assessment of the school is based on the educational standards, in addition to which, in the majority of federal states of Germany, so-called indicative frameworks of school quality have been developed, which contain indicators of the quality of school and educational process, and are an instrument for conducting an internal expert assessment of an educational institution. The main methods of expert assessment are the analysis of documents and data (statistics, students’ test results, school development programs, curricula, teacher training schedules, etc.), school attendance, including class observations, standardized questionnaires for the teaching staff, pupils and parents, as well communication with them regarding the school’s activities. Special institutions have been established to coordinate expert assessment of school education in Germany.
