      Can't live without my planner. I even go rogue and actually write down proper lesson plans with 4 points of progress.

      Also helped avoid duplicate versions of a lesson plan/slides ending up on school network. We're yet to utilise online collaborative docs...

    #UKEdChat - Q5. What are the demands of the leadership in your school, in terms of viewing your plans?
  • ukedchat - Moderator Jun 29 @ 3:41 PM EDT
    Agree with you, although nothing is truly 'free', which has always been a concern #UKEdChat

    A5. #UKEdChat Trust is key. Good collaboration between staff will build trust, which *should* spiral upwards.

    Everything backed up daily on external hard drive, weekly onto Google drive. Back up anything you can't afford to lose... #ukedchat

    Agreed that it's not totally free. Someone in your school will need to manage it and their time costs money. #ukedchat

      One of the reasons I left. I was only allowed to use the photocopier after admin staff had left (at 5pm) and they locked the paper up
