Vision + Mission + Values = Strategic Intent
Schools spend a great deal of time on strategic planning and developing the leadership capabilities of staff to deliver on a school’s plans, but is the school’s direction clear, is that direction well founded and does the school’s strategic plan reflect that direction?
Understanding a school’s strategic intent can add significant clarity and direction to a school’s strategic planning efforts.


Course Overview
The course explores the concept of strategic intent – what it is, why it is important and how schools can go about identifying their strategic intent.
The course introduces a Strategic Intent model for schools – based on three key elements: Improve, Excel and Collaborate.
The course provides learners with a process and practical activities for developing a school’s strategic intent, including an option to engage with a coach to review their learning.
