In every area of working life today we are all looking for continuous improvements to reduce waste, increase efficiency and still deliver a quality product.
We are going to look at how the tools for continuous improvement can be used in the education sector to help you as leaders make improvements. The keys for continuous improvement are
Have the majority on-board with the changes you want to implement (there will always be some against any form of change).
Do not make changes for the sake of changes – changes should have value and be for the benefit of all, not a vanity project for one (even if the one is in charge).
Changes should be incremental, whole sale changes cause confusion and can lead to animosity.
The process should be fluid where all stake holders feel they have a voice in the process.
Using GEMBA, 5 WHYS, CAPA and MUDA-MURA-MURI you will have tools (and forms) to help you look for waste and develop a culture of continuous improvement.
Had enough Christmas cards? Here are 10 Christmas Autograph boards that friends and classmates can sign rather than send cards. print off on A3 then let the pupils select the design they like. you can then put them around the room to decorate he room and classmates and friends can sign them with festive messages etc, then send them home with the pupils for the Christmas holidays. the blank is also included if you or your class what to design their own,

You can modify the word version of you want to add your schools logo to personalise it more for your school.

A picture can be worth a thousand words, they say.
In my opinion that’s absurd, give me the written word every day.
So use your board, to record your friend’s wisdom,
Comments, jokes or something random.
In years to come it will help your memories be full,
You might even realise your teacher was slightly cool.
Fill it up, maybe you’ll need a second or more,
To record your academic adventure.
