In 2022 Dr Henk Punt (a retired circuit manager) and an Industrial Psychologist at Camino Consulting
created a manual Calibration Survey and Feedback Reports (with qualitative and quantitative measurements) for Strong Schools.
Their objective was to create an instrument which measures the basic functionality of each
School, in order to identify gaps and challenges.
This process was introduced to the first Support Hub Schools, who completed and submitted
the necessary information.
A Feedback Report for each of the Schools was written and feedback sessions were held at each
School with their Senior Management Team members.
It is now used as a Strategic Tool for planning and towards necessary interventions.
The process started with Google Forms and manually-generated Reports. The discussions and
process to automate this Strategic Tool started at the beginning of 2023.
Calibrating your School’s compass will help the leadership team to adjust your direction towards excellence.

This tool will give your Senior Management Team a balanced view across four main areas,
which determine the effectiveness of your whole School.
