report, the main strength of the report is that findings and recommendations helps the report in
making more attractive and result oriented as well. The example report also depicts that the main
point of the report is that matter becomes more relevant when sources of professionals working

result oriented as well. That's why it is very important to understand the strengths and
weaknesses of the report-writing.
Strengths of report-writing: The main strength of report-writing is that it gives the reader
which receives all the info into pertinent terms without reading different types of books on the
subject. The report basically contains the info of background into summarised form which has
been required in order to understand what it is about along with the conclusion,
recommendations and analysis. Report basically the consolidated and updated information as
well and also it act as the means of internal communication. Report-writing also facilitates the
planning and decision-making as well and also gives reliable permanent information as well.

matter. Report-writing are basically time-consuming in terms of creating it and also expensive to
write and research as well (Rezai and et.al., 2022). It has been observed that report-writing of
technical nature are basically difficult to understand as well. The recommendations which has

financial nature are very difficult to create and also not easy to prove with support of evidences.

trialled among poorly performing private schools. It has been also recommended that the private
schools are given permission to continue operating in the same way for the time being but
charitable tax status be removed. There are certain recommendations which are very helpful in
terms of improving the performance into positive context with the right kind of approach. It has
been recommended for the good report-writing is that they have to focus on making the matter
more authentic and to the point as well. It has been also recommended that to use small sentences
which act as eye catching parameter for the reader. For making the report more effective, it is
important to follow the guidelines into appropriate terms and also it is important to be timely in
terms of nature(Teilegen., 2019).
