‘Culture’ is hard to define, because it’s something that is alive, it changes, and it relies a lot on feeling and experience. But every school has a culture.
School culture is something that is both scary and exciting! It’s scary because it’s difficult to change and will take a lot of agreement and effort. It’s exciting because when you achieve some positive changes with your school culture it makes a massive difference.
