Assembled from strategic ownership, milestones, the active Leadership Agreement and the Clock. Nobody maintains this by hand, and SchoolOS does not score, rank or compare people.
Leadership combines clear authority with appropriate consultation and professional expertise. We seek expertise before hierarchy where that produces a better decision, and we communicate significant decisions clearly.
Decisions should sit as close as possible to the expertise needed to make them well. Consultation should be proportionate to the impact of the decision. Where we operate differently from this agreement, we say so and record why.
