It is possible to gain a complete idea of training in a specific school by doing a classroom dry run. This can be brief in nature, but can make the production of data patters easier like the numerous opportunities there are to meet the numerous skills and interests of students, the kinds of work they produce, the instructional approaches teachers use and levels of engagement. These are usually shared with the members of the faculty for them to discuss about efficient ways to meets the students' needs and increase achievement.

Visiting institutions as well as giving teachers feedback can help build a professional manner of constant learning and development or a setting of resentment as well as suspicion.

School administrators and principals resort to dry runs to support the good effort of the teachers and ask them to take part in a professional conversation. Collecting data can be done easily. Asking questions can also be another form of feedback. School administrators and principals frequently ask the teachers they have already monitored if there are other available ways to ensure the success of students in content application and learning.

Without a doubt, in any institution there is always room for development. The runthrough method is an effective approach to assist administrators as well as teacher to do a better job at enhancing the learning opportunities of their students.

On the other hand, the purpose of this procedure can be defeated if assumptions are made or tiny criticisms are paid with more attention without knowing more about the intentions of the teachers and how they gauge student success. The success of dry runs will greatly depend on the respect the administrators give to the teachers.

It cannot be denied that one of the things that should be addressed right away is an unsafe situation. For example, a student may put others at risk, causes learning distraction or school principals and administrators may find students excluded from learning or isolated in the lecture room by the school teacher.

Correction of these circumstances should be done by means of intervention to get rid of the behavior that is causing problems and speaking to the teacher after class too to be guaranteed that these bad practices eliminated. This means it is necessary for follow up visits to be conducted.

School leaders should increase their understanding when it comes to the happenings inside the classroom. They will be required to be more reflective as well as support positive practices. The sense of common desire as well as trust should be increased to enhance the professional manner of the institution. Getting as well as sharing of runthrough data in the most positive way possible can help achieve such.
