Scenario – Principal’s Mastery Across Domains

Step 1: Principal, Adelaide, identifies a challenge within the School Domain during a leadership meeting. The school’s overall data indicates a need for stronger collaboration and a more cohesive approach to continuously improving teaching and learning across all grade levels.

Step 2: Adelaide organises a school-wide professional development day, focusing on collaborative leadership and establishing a culture of continuous improvement. She facilitates discussions on effective teaching strategies and encourages the teaching team to share best practices.

Step 4: Adelaide fosters peer collegiality by organising cross-grade collaboration sessions where teachers share successful strategies discovered during the walkthroughs. Recognising the importance of the Classroom Domain, she empowers teachers to take ownership of their professional growth, leading to a more effective teaching and learning environment.

Step 3: Observing the impact of the professional development, Adelaide implements regular Classroom Walkthroughs to gather data on teaching practices in action. Through these walkthroughs, she identifies trends, recognises areas of strength, and provides constructive feedback to teachers.
