'. The first chapter is about embedding a vision. There are a lot of tips about embedding habits that I found really helpful. These are based on suggestions from a headteacher of a high school in Kent. Here are my favourites:
- Create a culture from which achievement can grow
- The physical environment is crucial
- Nobody learns (or teaches well) if they are unhappy
- There is no contradiction between order and discipline and a belief that being at school should be full of laughter and joy.
- Ofsted success is based on replicating during inspection the good practice that occurs all the time, not on attempting to introduce last minute changes.
- Recruit, develop and promote outstanding staff and let them get on with it.
- Create a system that links CPD to individual classroom performance and personal need as well as whole school priorities.
If my school can follow these pieces of advice then it will be a clean, happy, disciplined, high performing, forward moving school. What more could I want?
