The A-Z of School Life: Fit for the Future, Getting to Grips and Health

 

The A-Z of School Life: Fit for the Future, Getting to Grips and Health - "The A-Z of school life is about making your school a great place for children to learn. No botox or surgery required, just a common sense, methodical approach based on the questions, ‘why do we do it this way? Is there another, better way we could do things? What’s stopping us from trying?’ Just as we need to look after ourselves, schools need ongoing maintenance. It’s your job as leader to know which parts could do with improving and doing something about it. That’s why the A-Z is important. It’s about holding the mirror up to your school and taking an honest appraisal of the situation. In previous e-bulletins we have looked at A-E. In this edition we focus on F, G and H. Remember, the idea is that I give you some suggestions for each letter and then you and your teams think of some other possibilities and focus on those that mean the most for your school."
