Dutch term or phrase: evaluatie bestuulijke hantering
I am stuck on how to translate "evaluatie bestuurlijke hantering". This evaluation is carried out by the Dutch Inspectorate of Education, and this is what it is:

Dit blijkt uit de jaarlijkse rapportage van de Inspectie van het Onderwijs over het HBO- onderwijs, getiteld Kwaliteitszorg hoger beroepsonderwijs 1997. Het rapport valt in drie delen uiteen. In de eerste plaats is bekeken of de uitgevoerde visitaties zorgvuldig zijn uitgevoerd en voldoende houvast geven voor verbetering en verantwoording. Dit is de zogeheten meta- evaluatie. In de tweede plaats heeft de inspectie onderzocht in hoeverre eerder gevisiteerde opleidingen aanbevelingen hebben opgevolgd ('evaluatie bestuurlijke hantering').

Taken from the website of the Onderwijsinspectie, http://www.onderwijsinspectie.nl/nieuws/persberichten/9433

Any help very gratefully received!

to be even more wordy but explain it most thoroughly you could as far as:
assessment of school's compliance with/follow-up to inspectorate's recommendations on course management

evaluation of extent to which the school has followed up the inspector's recommendations


Explanation:
School can be used here for bestuurlijk as in this context in English the term implies the school management. I would hesitate using 'compliance with' as it has a further meaning of yielding, acquiescence.
