	Value-added education: How can you help your students excel?
In partnership with parents and faculty, identify areas that are essential for the success of students - not just this year, but all their lives.
	Once you have identified appropriate objectives and aligned them with the mission and vision of your institutions, strategize with key stakeholders about how the school will collectively tackle the project of school improvement.		Value your faculty: nothing will happen in your classrooms without their buy-in and support. The best schools are those in which faculty lead the change process, and continually improve the curriculum and methodology.
Make your schools research and learning centres in which reflection, questioning and problem-solving are valued as positive elements of change and development.		Investigate projects elsewhere, to find keys to successful implementation of school improvement projects. Keep everyone involved as partners through this process. Your won't replicate what they have achieved, but you can learn from success (and failure) stories what works best.

The ultimate accomplishment of a school is to produce students who learn how to learn all their lives, and who become confident, creative problem-solvers, working for the betterment of mankind. These are not traits that appear from nowhere: these are skills and attributes taught and nurtured in schools which practice Learning for Life in the Student-Centered Classroom
