Application
It is important to repeat the message of the educational concept whenever possible. The emphasis of each point can shift depending on the means of communication and the subject matter.
For example, when good results of benchmarking tests are communicated, “Performance through Diversity” should be highlighted; when a report on a bilingual theatre play is at the centre, “Bilingual Education” should be paramount.
Under no condition can any communication be contradictory to any of the points of the educational concept or to the concept as a whole. Neither can it marginalise its message and render it insignificant in favour of a different message.
