Vision
In the early stages of the cluster of schools forming, it was important to establish a shared vision and statements of belief. The shared vision is something that is referenced each time the cluster of schools meets. This enables the group to remain focused on the big picture and the wider focus of the project, motivating us to remember why this work is important.
To create the shared vision the cluster worked to brainstorm their ideas. The group then reviewed everyone's thoughts and found common threads to develop our purpose and additional statements. These were then reviewed by the cluster again to ensure a consensus and a strong vision was established.
