Schools abound on every street in our cities these days. And we know why – they are a great financial investment and a concrete way to contribute to society. In the previous point, we discussed the necessity of a clear-cut vision when setting up a school. But it is not enough to merely have lofty ideals. Instead, your school should address a need in the educational ecosystem. Identifying this need requires research – speaking to teachers, parents, and students is a good start, but it can also be helpful to review educational policy and the status quo to see how your school can add something to the field, instead of being just another school populating our streets.
