As shown above, the SWOT analysis generates four (4) types of strategic interventions.
Formulate these interventions by answering the following questions:
For Box A: In what ways can the school use its strengths to take
advantage of the opportunities, and thereby achieve its objectives and
targets?
For Box B: In what ways can the school overcome its weaknesses to take
advantage of the opportunities?
For Box C: In what ways can the school use its strengths to counteract the
threats?
For Box D: In what ways can the school overcome its weaknesses to
counteract the threats?
NOTE: While the SWOT analysis is intended as a tool for strategy formulation, the participants
may also include programs or projects and activities as interventions. These should be noted
down and included in the list. Encourage the group to come up with as many
interventions as they can think of, without making any judgment yet that a
particular intervention is a strategy, program, project or activity. The exercise of
sorting the list into these levels or categories will be done in the following session
on action planning.
Following is an EXAMPLE of SWOT ANALYSIS using the results of external and internal assessment
in earlier sessions. The tem should formulate its own grid based on the results of its assessment.

implementation of Distance
Education and other ADMs can
also serve as TW Strategy as
these will not require additional
teachers and textbooks but more
on self-learning modules.
