This paper connects with performance indicator 8B which states "the competent teacher understands the collaborative process and the skills necessary to initiate and carry out that process". It connects well with this standard because we had to collaborate as a staff in order to design our schools qualities in a way we all agreed upon. We had to discuss many factors that played a role in what we have to offer i in our own classes. Collaboration is what enabled our school and what we provide to be successful. 

I believe this assignment has taught me a lot about collaboration as well as the importance of structure. Our school and staff has involved lots of hard work, but wasn't able to be completed without the guidance of all group members. We all put it in the time and effort to make our school presentable, and also made sure we shared real experiences so that others could possibly learn from what he had experienced with teaching. Being able to work with others is so important and can play such a big role with how successful something can be.
