Building and Maintaining Strong Organisational Culture

Building a strong school culture is essential to school improvement and is positively linked with student outcomes. Research indicates that while it is one of the most important concepts in education it is also one of the most overlooked. The centrality of relationships and the presence of a widely shared sense of purpose or vision are key concepts in building a positive school culture.

We can help schools:

• evaluate the strength and appropriateness of the school's culture in ensuring the well-being and development of staff
• assess the culture in relation to teaching and learning
• assess the effectiveness of the different teams operating within the school environment - leadership team, teaching teams, support staff teams, administration team
• identify possible actions for school management to take for further development of a positive school culture

We can provide professional learning and development to leaders in the school in how to proactively build, strengthen and maintain a vibrant, positive workplace culture.
