Abstract: Self-evaluation is a tool, an approach through which we assess and assure quality in education and training. The success of self-evaluation is influenced by various factors. One of the most important is to strengthen the capabilities of everyone involved in the evaluation. In the paper we present the key reasons for choosing networking as a strategy for strengthening the capacity for evaluation and the research on the existing practice of networks at Slovenian primary schools. In depth we are exploring the form of networking between developmental and weak schools in selfevaluation. The goal of such networking is school improvement on the systemic, organizational and personal level. We present the research and the dilemmas that arise at this stage.
