This handy table from Assessment as a Catalyst for Learning breaks down the characteristics of each. @MandyStalets @garnet_hillman

School culture is not created by a mission statement on a wall, but it is created and lived out daily by everyone in the school working together, supporting each other, and dedicated to being their best.
