Plan well, then implement relentlessly
The first step to being able to focus, is to know where you’re going. Without a strong plan, you’ll easily get pulled around by whatever flavour of the month is coming at you.
With our combination of policy, strategy and education expertise, we can help you build a strategic plan that meets your reporting needs, but also provides you with clear, concise and compelling plan of action.
A great strategic plan helps guide decision making throughout the school - from teachers in the classroom, to staff in the office, all the way to the principal team. It allows distributed, autonomous decision making without causing chaos. It helps you say no, not now, or absolutely. And it brings the whole community together to support you as you work towards true excellence.
Often for schools strategic planning becomes a compliance exercise because it needs to fit into a template provided by the Education Department, Catholic Education Office or the Board. Don’t let this be your fate - we can help you build a plan to covers your compliance needs, but is actually useful for your school.
Plan together
We can facilitate one or more sessions with your team to co-create a vision and strategy.
When your team is part of the planning process, we build alignment and excitement for the plan along the way, making everything easier later.
And we’ll take the load for you so you can focus on contributing to the strategy, not facilitating.
We’ll do the writing
As a principal you’re really busy, so let us help by writing up your strategic plan for you. We’ll take what we learn in your planning sessions, and create a plan that will meet all your needs.
We’ll collaborate and communicate with you all the way through, making sure that your strategic plan will be a truly useful, inspiring and helpful document for you and your staff.
