PLAN pilot schools take a holistic approachÌýto education by incorporating performance-based learningÌýmodels that allow students toÌýdemonstrateÌýknowledge and skills.ÌýThese learningÌýmodels include career & technical education and work-based learning; inquiry-based approaches with learner profiles; and project-based learning and performance-based assessments.

Panelists provided insight on howÌýthey’reÌýshifting away from structured, teacher-led lessons and the impact it’s having on student engagement. The evidence collected through the pilot initiative will inform the statewide implementation of New York Inspires. Beginning in the 2027-28 school year, all public school districts will award one high school diploma based on new credit requirements.
