How far have you all dared to 'cheat' on the ridiculous things that you are asked to do? At my school, it started with a meeting where we all had to give 'written feedback' on something. Some of us realised that it was very similar to a meeting we'd had the previous year so we looked up all the documentation and simply copied and pasted everything. No one noticed.
Emboldened, we began to do the same for other things which we were convinced nobody ever actually read or checked up on such as seating plans, dept progress reports, end of year exam reviews etc
From here we progressed to making up all data.
This week, we have had to do lesson observations on each other and write them up. We copied and pasted them all from last year.
I can't think why it's taken so long for this to occur to us. It's saving hours.
What else can we cheat on?
