Therefore, we intend to investigate the following lines of research: Evaluation and quality in education. This line aims to strengthen a complicit and authentic relationship between the need for assessment for learning and for professional improvement that enables high-quality processes in educational organisations. This assessment is presented, without a doubt, as an agent of optimisation and innovation. Management teams. This line focuses on promoting reflection, research and innovation regarding the organisation's problems and the management of educational organisations to support processes for change and improvement. Furthermore, it particularly focuses on planning, developing and evaluating action and continuous training plans for management roles to address the complexities faced by management in increasingly changing and complex organisations. Professional development and continuous teacher training. This line aims to achieve better professional competence among teachers, aiming to promote innovation and improve teaching and learning processes so as to increase student potential and achieve educational success for all students. This continuous training will enable professional development for teachers. It is a two-way relationship that needs strategies that enable opportunities to strengthen processes for change and continuous improvement. Leadership. This line aims to investigate emerging leadership trends and their positive impact on student academic results, the professional development of the teaching team and the improvement of the educational community. Not to forget the importance of communication processes as the backbone of the proper functioning and management of educational organisations.
