Teachers and school staff—we want to hear from you. 👇
What's the one thing that usually looks completely different in Week 1 than it did during planning?
The schedule?
Transitions?
Staff roles?
Student support needs?
That beautifully organized classroom? 😅
The first few weeks tell us things no planning meeting ever could.
And sometimes the best thing a team can do isn't immediately add another solution.
It's notice what's happening, give routines time to settle, and figure out what problem actually needs solving.
So tell us:
What usually surprises you most once students actually arrive?
