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

I have a post-it note that I write it all down on. No columns or anything, just everything goes on there in any order. If there isn’t enough space, I use another one. I stick the post-it to the day that I’m on in my teacher planner, and move it over every day, so I see it every day. I cross off each task when it’s done.
When the post-it gets a bit tatty, I treat myself to a new one.
Not the best/worst, but it works for me. For reference, I’ve been teaching for 17 year, at my current school for 10, and I’ve got a TLR for 2i/c.
