About CLAVES®

Contextualized Learning for Access, Validation,
Equity and Success – CLAVES®

CLAVES® is a framework that provides educational stakeholders with the professional learning needed to create an environment of differentiated, inclusive, and validating instruction in schools that serve English learners (ELs).

Within the CLAVES® framework, professional learning is organized and supported by leaders who embrace professional learning that is:

  • focused on improving and building teacher skills for classroom practice,
  • mediated through a learning community,
  • led by a skilled and knowledgeable leader,
  • focused on the everyday work and practices of classroom teachers, and
  • data-informed and evidence-based.
