Leading Through Learning, For Learning
Understand the drivers that are required for continuous improvement.
How do we strive to lead schools in a good direction, from whatever starting point? In this inquiry, you will incorporate research and expert knowledge related to understanding and driving school improvement in order to develop and refine how to engage your school community in change. To accomplish these goals, you will closely examine change efforts underway in your school and identify and collaboratively plan focus areas for improvement. Finally, you will provide evidence of comprehensive plans for leadership of a teacher learning oriented change initiative.
Participants may also choose to participate in an additional clinical coaching cycle with conferencing and an observation to support further improvement and application in practice.
This series is also offered (for five or more teachers) as a school-based inquiry.
