More About Catalpa

Catalpa Ltd. is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. Catalpa’s most important achievement is the improvement in the quality and utility of information that Practice-Based Inquiry makes available for school practitioners, policy makers and the public about the performance of public schools.

Catalpa has won international acclaim for its ground-breaking work in establishing Practice-Based Inquiry as a legitimate research methodology for organizations that provide professional services. Practice-Based Inquiry has significantly improved the quality and utility of rigorous information that is available to schools, accrediting associations and other professional service organizations.

 

 

“An idea is better than no idea. …That’s the way science works. An idea can be tested, whereas if you have no idea, nothing can be tested and you don’t understand anything.”

---- James D. Watson , Biologist
