HOW CAN MY
SCHOOL
PLAN FOR
K TO 12?
Planning Framework
Planning Tool – Templates
Options for most schools
1. What is the school’s
present situation?
2. Where does the school
need to go from here?
3. How should the school
get “from here to there”?
"Would you tell me, please, which way
I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where
you want to get to," said the Cat.
"I don’t much care where--" said Alice.
"Then it doesn’t matter which way you
go," said the Cat.

Open kinder if you haven’t done so yet
Gear up for SHS; borrow to build if finances
are tight
Sharing resources for SHS - students can
cross-enrol, teachers can do the rounds,
cluster around a big school, retool teachers
Advocate higher GASTPE for SHS; kinder
too?
Mission schools – status quo? time for
instrospection?
