CIN's Ian Northam and Tim Emerton will spend time reviewing the school both in person and through conducting surveys.
"Each teacher will complete surveys, quite comprehensive surveys, so we will have that data to be able to analyse before we come out here ourselves in term four," Mr Northam said.
"Then we will be on-site in the college for three weeks, one week in each college. We want to hear feedback from community members and parents.
"We will interview each executive staff member, and we will interview several focus groups and students.
"It's important that when we do that a number of the people we speak to are actually representative of the parent body or the students in the campus. Most of what we gather is going to come first-hand face-to-face."
Mr Northam said CIN's job is to come up with a number of recommendations to shape the campus' focus over the next three years.
"Rather than just saying 'here's your report' the invitation will be there for people, as well as staff, to have the unpacking of what is there," he said.
Executive principal Andrew Jones said all schools are unique, but reviewing a schools performance is something every school should regularly be doing.
