What are institutional priorities?

Institutional priorities are like the big goals that a school or a company wants to achieve.

Imagine you're in a classroom full of kids. The teacher has a list of things they want everyone to learn by the end of the year, like reading, counting, and drawing. These are their priorities. They help decide what activities the class does every day.

Like a Playground

Now think of a school as a big playground. There are many games to play: soccer, swing rides, building with blocks. But not all games can be played at once. The teachers choose which games to focus on, like reading time or math puzzles, because those are the important goals they want everyone to reach.

Just like a playground needs rules so everyone plays nicely, a school has institutional priorities to help everyone learn and grow in the best way possible.
