There is just too much to do on a day-to-day basis, and the whole prospect of putting together an intricate plan seems like an overwhelming task.We earned our qualifications as teachers, not as business administrators. However, Activities and Sports Programmes (ASP) are growing in international schools and becoming crucial elements of their strategy to deliver a holistic education.Because of this development, it is now more critical than ever that Directors of ASPs take conscious control of their programmes.Rather than organic growth of a programme, schools need and want a clear strategic plan that will ensure the ASP develops to deliver the best possible learning environment for their students.This book lays out a simple to follow, step-by-step guide to producing a quality strategic plan that will optimise your ASP to fulfil its role within the school.

The number of international schools has grown exponentially and many have become highly complex multimillion-euro/yen/dollar organisations. This development puts tremendous pressure on board members, many of whom are committed to the school but have limited time to be truly effective in their role. Governance in International Schools is a handbook for international boards, fitting within the ECIS Sustainable International School Governance programme. The programme exists in order to: move governance practices beyond accreditation compliance and towards a sustainable commitment to creating value for all stakeholders; provide training for board members, trustees and proprietors; support start-up and emerging international schools; and bring additional benefits to the work of business managers, administration managers and marketing and development directors of international schools.
