Support Handbook for First-Time Principals

 

Support Handbook for First-Time Principals - "Congratulations on achieving your appointment as principal. This important role will require you to utilise the leadership qualities of drive, determination, vision and refection. How you act, how you feel and what you do will be pivotal in ensuring the focus in your school is on learning. Teams, not individuals build success. As school leader you will reach out to others to build teams, create a capacity for continuous improvement and develop a belief in maximising the potential of your students. You will continue to learn as you reflect on the strategies and challenges that will characterise and shape your role as principal. This will allow you to continue to adapt, change and grow as leader. The purpose of this booklet is to provide support and answers to some of the questions you may have in your early days as principal."
