The longer I've worked in education, the more apparent it's become: simple, consistent routines, applied with love, regular recognition & praise for getting it right &, when necessary, predictable consequences for not following the rules, has the greatest positive impact overall.

Have a process for entering and leaving the class; stick to it, every single time. Same for all transitions. Same for rewards and sanctions. Be fair. Stick to your guns. Do it with compassion, not anger or frustration. Explain why you have systems and the benefit of them.

I often find myself passionately using Thomasโ words when talking to friends and family about the changes we have been making at Ernulf. You canโt help but be emotionally invested in the mission when you can see the improvementโs firsthand & when all staff are rowing together.
๐ I wrote another blog on turnarounds, a follow up to the one I posted last weekend. This time, I touch on the importance of narrating compelling mission. ๐ Link in the post below ๐
