Quality LearningCreating a VisionSuccessful schools have a clear sense of direction. One way of achieving this shared sense of direction is through the visioning process. To be successful it needs to involve all members of the school community. Once the vision has been affirmed then it needs to be able to be articulated by all. When this has been achieved everyone can then align their efforts behind the vision and by a process of self-reference and professional development the school will reach continually improve. Visions are translated into reality by means of a Teaching Framework or belief system. In earlier visions the beliefs of the Teaching Frameworks were based around the key perfornmace outcomes found in the suggestion for Performance Management Systems. With the introduction of the 'official' Professional Standards school have instead used the key areas of this document. More recently schools have (still using the Professional Standards as the basis) reduced their core teaching beliefs down to five, as five is an easy number to remember!
