Workshop description

In today’s dynamic educational landscape, the significance of teacher leadership in our schools cannot be overstated. This interactive workshop delves into the pivotal role that teacher leaders play in shaping and enhancing the quality of education.

Participants will explore the essential qualities and skills that define effective teacher leadership, including collaboration, communication, and effective team management. Through thought-provoking discussions and hands-on activities, attendees will gain practical strategies to build their leadership capacity.

By embracing the importance of teacher leadership, schools can unlock a wealth of benefits. Teacher leaders serve as catalysts for innovation, driving positive change in curriculum development, pedagogy, and student engagement. Moreover, they inspire a culture of professional growth and mentorship, nurturing the talents and potential of their colleagues.

The aim of this event is to…

  • Build the leadership capacity of teacher leaders
  • Provide clear and concrete learning experiences that can be transferred back to their teacher leadership work
  • Provide reflection on core skills and planning to implement some of the skills they have developed in the workshop

As a result of participating at this institute, attendees can expect to:

  • Have a clear understanding of the need for and power of teacher leadership in schools
  • Develop and extend core competencies of teacher leadership.
  • Connect and share opportunities and challenges in their leadership.
