Abstract
The data team intervention was designed to support schools' data use. The sustainability of schools' data use was investigated by studying the schools' development of the ostensive and performative aspects of organizational routines for: engaging in the data team intervention, acting upon their data team's improvement plan, and using data for school development and instruction. Six Dutch secondary schools participated in this longitudinal mixed-methods study. Data were collected through questionnaires, policy documents, and interviews. Results indicated that schools struggled to develop organizational routines for data use, especially the ostensive aspects. This illuminated the process by which schools did not sustain their use of data. The findings showed that interventions for data use should more clearly target the development of organizational routines.
