Denial might be a reflex response to negative community accusations being levelled at a school but it is not an appropriate long-term solution.
While it is true that there have been many mountains made from molehills by individuals, there is also the real possibility that where there is smoke there is fire. Getting to the bottom of any issue early and communicating proactively about it can not only reassure the community, but it can also prevent a minor issue becoming a major concern.
Most schools are ready and able to deal with the wide array of student and/or family relationships turned bad. However, when the issues arising in the school are symptoms of bigger problems in the community, it can be harder to find an appropriate response and/or workable solution. It is for this reason that Eddee provides Collab Hackathons. We bring together the various stakeholders inside and outside the school along with their different perspectives and opinions and facilitate a collaborative approach to finding genuine alignment and a shared commitment to a positive and practical way forward.
