How proposals work — phases & who can do what
Draft
The author is still writing — problem, options, recommendation. Not yet shown for discussion.
Who: the author drafts it. Any leadership-team member can open a new proposal.
Open for comment
Discussion is live. The leadership team reads the proposal and adds comments. This is the brainstorming stage.
Who: the Principal opens it for comment. All leadership read & comment.
Decided
Agreed. Promoted to the Decisions register (school-wide) with a back-link — the decision keeps its audit trail.
Who: the Principal promotes & approves the decision.
Parked
Shelved for now but kept on the record — revisit later. Not rejected, just not active.
Who: the Principal parks it. Can be re-opened anytime.

Phase & promote control sit with the School Principal by design — the leadership team shapes the idea through discussion, the Principal makes the call. A decision that needs governance authority — for example a formal appointment of an Academic Coordinator / Vice Principal — goes to the Foundation Representative / General Manager (FR/GM) for confirmation (Career Growth: Framework 26-27 §5.1). A change to a network rule — Gradebook weights, EASE rules, appraisal criteria — is not a school decision; raise it with Eduversal. Everything here is scoped to your own school; other schools never see your proposals.
