Based on the principles of effective appraisal.
At its heart, Arinui is about improving educator practice so they can focus on what matters – making a difference for learners. 

Appraisal should be grounded by inquiry into practice, led by the teacher, and be a vehicle for school change and improvement. Arinui is built on the principles of robust inquiry into practice based on carefully selected supporting evidence. 

Teachers lead their own appraisal process so that appraisal becomes part and parcel of their professional practice. By inquiring into teaching and leadership practice, it is easy for educators to evaluate the impact that they are having and track this back to the Standards for the Teaching Profession.

When schools, centres, and educational organisations use Arinui, they build their evaluative capability. Arinui supports educators to know the impact of their practice and inquire into areas of teaching or leadership in order to make the most significant impact for their learners. 
How is it different from other online appraisal tools?
Arinui is more than just gathering together a portfolio of evidence. Philosophically it is in fact very different from that. Arinui is designed to be a tool more focused on improving rather than proving. It emphasises a focus on student learning, teaching and leading as inquiry and active reflection. 

The reflective questions throughout Arinui are designed to support this evaluative process. Only at the end of this process are teachers asked to consider how the Standards for the Teaching Profession have been met by this process and evidence. This is very different to a compliance driven process where you try and think what evidence you could gather against each of the standards in isolation.
