a mini guide for teachers.

  1. Annual:
    The material list must be checked again and if necessary "updated" every year. 
     

  2. Stay up to date:
    visit your trusted stationer to find out what's new every year and to update your list.
     

  3. Parents and purchase:
    Keep in mind that the list you hand in will be the only guide parents will follow to the letter. Accuracy in the indications is essential: check that the products are regularly on the market and under which wording so as not to create confusion in parents and stationery shops.
     

  4. Notes and notes:
    We advise against expressing personal opinions at the end of the list, such as comments or advice that could create confusion or put resellers in a disadvantageous position.
    Ex: advice on where to buy, or how much to spend

Creating the list, concrete examples:

  • Provide a descriptioncorrect,preciseAndcompleteof the product without leaving out or taking for granted any details.

  • Feedback
    Finally, if you receive any reports or feedback from parents, it is good to write everything down and take them into consideration to improve your list.
    The list is a living product that lives with the school, is updated, modified and grows from year to year.
