Investing in the Professionalising
of School Leaders
6th November 2024
11:00 - 12:00 PM UTC
Evidence shows that when leadership training prepares school principals in areas like collaboration, vision, and staff development, with induction, coaching, and mentorship for new leaders, it is most effective and enduring. While national leadership standards help guide training and appraisals, they must also reflect local contexts. Ongoing professional development, clear performance standards, and support systems are vital for effective, resilient leadership.​
