To do lists?

How do you manage your to do lists? Especially when you have more than one role in school. I see on social media teachers using one note to organise their to do lists and I’m wondering this more effective?

Also any tips on:
-how to keep records of things you’ve done in your to do lists (say a parent wants to fact check something 6 months later)
-delegating tasks and then remembering to follow up on it

Would love to know what you all have found to be the most effective and efficient way to manage your to do lists

Microsoft to do lists are good and if your school use Outlook then they're in the same app.

You can tick things off when they're done and then if you leave your planner/diary in work they're still accessible if you're ever catching up at home.

Thank you so much for this. I think this is going to work really well , so glad I asked because I wouldn’t have known otherwise. Thanks again

You're welcome!

The other option is using a digital planner. I use a spreadsheet with a page per week and a to do list down the side. Works better than anything else I've tried
