Resource Reuse Audit
How much of what your department makes each year could have been reused — a checklist of the habits that decide it.
Where no shared storage convention exists, teachers routinely rebuild lessons that already exist elsewhere in the same department, and the single highest-return fix reported in workload reviews is one agreed location with a naming convention rather than a new platform.
Resource Reuse Audit
Frequently asked
Is using someone else's resources lazy?
No, and the framing is part of the problem. No other profession expects each practitioner to rebuild the same artefact annually. The skill is in the teaching of the lesson, not in the making of the slides.
What about published or commercial resources?
Where they are good enough, using them frees the time to improve the lessons where they are not. The judgement worth making is which two or three lessons in a unit genuinely need to be bespoke.
Why does sharing break down?
Almost always at the improvement step: someone improves a resource in their own copy, so the shared version stays weak and everyone stops trusting it. Fixing the write-back habit matters more than the storage.
