Teacher Workplace Survey 2 by Michelleh https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz We have recently completed the Teacher Workplace Survey and one of the areas for improvement was ' the school leaders protect the time we have for teaching and learning by reducing additional demands and interruptions'. As a leadership team, we'd like to understand what kinds of interruptions are happening, what we can avoid and what you think we can do to solve the issue.

Most things would be a lot less confusing if there was just a central email to refer back to.]]> 2018-06-27 20:14:47 UTC https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268776972 I would like to bring up the fact that there seems to be a lack of cohesion across the school, which appears to stem from misunderstanding and unclear communication https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268815920 2018-06-28 04:00:27 UTC https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268815920 Reduce meetings when pressure of report writing / bridge conversations are on - staff can't do all with what is expected to come out of them. https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268829866 2018-06-28 07:27:32 UTC https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268829866 Clarity please so the whole staff get the same message. Clarity when extra data gets added into the calendar without being relayed to the staff would be helpful. https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268830103 2018-06-28 07:30:21 UTC https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268830103 Suggest that the beginning of the term the overview for school wide term events is discussed and that any additional events are discussed well in advance so that planning is not compromised: e.g we should know when School masses are so therefore we discuss when a shared singing practice should happen etc. mariam7 https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268902284 2018-06-28 20:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268902284 Working on an overview for this term was helpful with clarity of when to schedule in assessments etc- this needs to be done schoolwide every term and should be done before the holidays so people are prepared. mariam7 https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268902482 2018-06-28 20:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268902482 Planning is a work in progress at the moment and with Spotlight not performing like we want it to,it has been frustrating.I think we need to constantly review our expecations as a staff. What do we consider important in planning for teaching and learning.How do we work smarter with what we have . mariam7 https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268902593 2018-06-28 20:26:41 UTC https://padlet.com/michelleh2/c74us65zu2tz/wish/268902593
