Navigating a school out of danger

The reasons why it can be a tall order to navigate a school out of danger are many and varied. One of the factors affecting negatively the overall health of a school system is absence of a shared vision and clarity of purpose.

A vision should not exist in the head of a leader or management. Shared dreams and aspirations promote unity of purpose and mind while lack of clarity of purpose sows the seeds of discord and misunderstanding.
