Abstract
Today, educational institutions are complex systems. These have to engage students and teachers from many different language and cultural backgrounds. Therefore, the issue of communication and relationships is paramount to stakeholders and needs to be addressed. The Relational Schools Foundation has developed an assessment that provides a profile of an institution, giving assistance to improving communication and relationships in the workplace. Research, to date, is encouraging. It is showing that attention to this aspect of stakeholder collaboration pays dividends in increased student progress and less stressful people relationships.
