The course has helped me feel more confident with strategic planning. This is my first time as a Head Teacher being fully involved in the process. We are a community kindergarten and a governed by a management board, which is why I need to feel comfortable and confident with strategic planning. It is unfortunate for many kaiako that they are not involved in a lot processes from the start of their teaching practice. I had been teaching for at least 10 years before being aware of some practices.
