About Compass Calibration

In 2022 Dr Henk Punt (a retired circuit manager) and an Industrial Psychologist at Camino Consulting created a manual Calibration Survey and Feedback Reports (with qualitative and quantitative measurements) for Strong Schools. Their objective was to create an instrument which measures the basic functionality of each School, in order to identify gaps and challenges.

This process was introduced to the first Support Hub Schools, who completed and submitted the necessary information. A Feedback Report for each of the Schools was written and feedback sessions were held at each School with their Senior Management Team members. It is now used as a Strategic Tool for planning and towards necessary interventions.

The process started with Google Forms and manually-generated Reports. The discussions and process to automate this Strategic Tool started at the beginning of 2023.
