‘For years after we built our new school estate I drove past them and was very very proud’

We said education was important to us in Falkirk but we had to demonstrate that we

Why I like PDSA and this model of Improvement Science

• Simple

• Logical - Driver Diagrams show a logical flow

• Transparent - Driver Diagrams show individual elements of

change ideas

• The more you use it the easier it gets (wider use)

• Accountable – set targets

• Data - see what has made the difference

- Sasha (Aberdeen) – ‘run charts made my life

easier’

Co-ordinating Leadership - What I’m finding

• From Improvement Advisers – Key Changes and Pioneer Sites

• Great tests of change
