Data Critique
Another Team critique• Do the data tools listed align
with the outcomes• Are there a mix of
Quantitative- Perceptual Data• Are baselines established?• Does the data collected make
sense?
![Page 29: Cosl SagSession School Planning for Success – What works and Why ?](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814eaf550346895dbc59a0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Top 10 reasons
• In your group discuss and identify the factors,resources or supports which helped you or your team to develop the school plan.
• Report back• Compare with a Provincial
Report

Lessons LearnedDuring the fall of 2006 MECY interviewed several exemplary school
planning teams to identify elements that contribute to successful school improvement planning. Here is a sample of their ideas:
Factors contributing to successful school planning• Providing time and resources for planning • Belief in and ownership of planning by the entire staff• Parent and student voices included in priority setting• Distributed and shared leadership for planning• Evidence (data) informed planning • School division support and emphasis on planning • Cyclical patterns of planning activities over 2- 3 year periods• Planning imbedded in school practices • Well developed planning framework and structures in place• Aligning budget resources and support to areas identified in school plan• Aligning staff development and professional learning to planning• Focusing on improved student learning with clear outcomes• Commitment to improving planning practices through staff development, leadership
and dialogue• Networking, researching, and implementing effective strategies• Ongoing monitoring of progress, feedback, support, and mentoring

Caveats
• Planning is a process not an event• Planning is just a start • Research supports some features
and refutes other features• Fullan, Hargreaves, Reeves,
Schmoker, Marzano , et al have shown that schools and divisions who plan well tend to get better results for students than those plan poorly
• If its worth doing ..then its worth doing well
![Page 35: Cosl SagSession School Planning for Success – What works and Why ?](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814eaf550346895dbc59a0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Focussed discussion
• Review of content• We know what factors can contribute to
successful school improvement planning.
• We will revisit then during the discussion and you can comment upon their importance.
• Closure Take a moment to reflect upon the two days :– What factors resonate for you ?– What will you take away from the session to
apply to your situation?– What advice do you have for Manitoba
Education in regard to School planning?

Questions to consider as we work
• Who is the plan for? ( Division, Schools, Teachers, Kids,Parents )
• What role will school plans play in setting division priorities?
• What data do we have that can help set our priorities ?
• Who will be involved and have input? ( Trustees, Administrators, Staff Groups, Students , Parents)
• How will we monitor progress?• Who will do the work, when, how?• Will we plan to plan?
