We examine why educational practices often fail to stick in schools despite initial enthusiasm and training. The key insight is that sustainable implementation requires building systems where practices become embedded in school culture rather than being treated as temporary initiatives.
• The implementation dip occurs when the "shine of the new" wears off and teachers must embed practices for the long term
• Different teachers need different types of support – some need training, others coaching, mentoring, or collaborative relationships
• Moving beyond compliance-focused implementation to helping teachers understand the purpose behind practices
• Building systems means creating conditions where the practice becomes easier to do than not to do
• Successful schools measure implementation by impact on student learning, not by teacher compliance
• Creating systems that hold practices in place when inevitable pressures of the school year emerge
• Connecting practices to outcomes helps everyone understand why implementation matters
Remember, you likely already have everything you need to make this work. Focus on building systems that will support you when things get challenging – that's when your system needs to be strongest.
