The Complexities of a School Principal’s Day

The Complexities of a School Principal’s Day (Australian article) - "Leaders from across industry have an opportunity every year to taste the reality of school leadership and management by participating in the Principal for a Day program run by the Australian Council for Education Research. Most come away very respectful of the energy and commitment needed to run a complex organisation subject to a huge variety of expectations. Two University of Melbourne academics – microbiologist Dr Rosa Gualano and public health expert Professor Rob Moodie – participated in this year’s program, along with such wellknown identities as John Denton, Jon Faine, Gabriel Gaté and Bronwyn Pike. Dr Gualano, of the Lung Disease Research Facility in the Department of Pharmacology, went back to her old school, Koonung Secondary College in North Box Hill."
