Overboarding Bedroom Ceiling, advice appreciated

Hi all,

I'm overboarding my lathe and plaster bedroom ceiling due to various cracks.
I have marked out the joists and intend to strap across them with 25x50mm at 300mm centres and use 9.5x900x1800 plasterboard. ( Easier for me to do on my own )
Then have a plasterer skim and refit the coving.
My question is regarding staggering the joints on the plasterboard. I would appreciate advice and guidance re this and any other tips. The room is 3.7m x4.4m
