School Culture Survey
In our experience, many schools and school districts struggle with creating a positive culture.
How important is it?
Well here is what noted US education expert Thomas J Sergiovanni says in The Lifeworld of Leadership when considering the basis for a school’s success.
“Most successful school leaders will tell you…it’s getting the culture right.”
So much for the focus that most schools give to teaching and learning. Don’t get me wrong, having a focus on teaching and learning is key. But don’t forget that you are not just a school but also an organisation –- and subject to all the same issues as any organisaton.
What Segiovani is saying is that if you get the culture right the rest will follow.
If you would like some objective indicator as to your current school culture, take our free survey — and consider having the courage to ask other school community members (including staff, parents and students) to take it also.
