Structure shapes behaviour more than we often admit
There is no single “perfect” organisational structure.
The right model depends on:
• size
• culture
• speed of decision-making
• innovation needs
• accountability
• collaboration requirements
From hierarchical to flat, matrix to networked, each structure changes how power, communication, and responsibility flow through an organisation.

Thread 🧵
To improve the use of teaching and learning techniques in the classroom we need to define them “this is how we do it here” and make it common practice across the school.
When implementing T&L techniques their success relies on this clarity and creating opportunities for teachers to deliberately practice.

STEP 1
We have identified 10 core T&L techniques.
