Abstract: As an important infrastructure in digital education transformation, the digital pedestal forms a system base by integrating the education cloud network and the core functions of data center, organization center, IoT center and applications center, providing important support for the reform of comprehensive school evaluation. This study firstly analyzes the current problems and challenges faced by school comprehensive evaluation in terms of value-oriented transformation, reconstruction of evaluation standards, and digitalization of evaluation methods from the perspective of China’s education evaluation reform, and constructs a digital base to empower the school comprehensive evaluation system: unifying the evaluation management and development functions to provide value leadership, relying on the generation of evaluation standards that unify commonality and individuality, and integrating and innovating digital evaluation methods based on the whole process of data collection, analysis and feedback, and process integration of innovative digital evaluation methods, thus realizing the evaluation organization form of multi-subject participation and negotiation. Finally, it is proposed that future research and practice can further deepen the comprehensive empowerment of the education digital pedestal for comprehensive evaluation reform from the aspects of evaluation index system multi-subjective integration, intelligent agents aid in reducing burdens and increasing efficiency, as well as numerical intelligence dashboard-driven data integration and characterization.
