How to Manage School Professional Learning

A principal manages school professional learning to instructional leaders and the teaching team by following a process that ensures the team members will participate in professional learning and enhance their teaching techniques and practices.

The principal:

• leads from the front in professional learning 
• engages team members about the value of professional learning and the need for continuous development  
• reviews the School Improvement Plan with the instruction coach to align what the school intends to achieve with what professional learning the team needs to accomplish this  
• works with the instruction coach to use that information to build the school’s Professional Learning Plan 
• shares the school Professional Learning Plan with leaders and the teaching team.
