To provide ongoing support to beginning and aspiring principals, we are introducing 30 eLearning modules that offer a deep dive into the topics that are important for beginning principals to know. They give you a chance to engage in structured, self-directed professional learning that covers the fundamentals of being a principal, which you can work through at your own pace and revisit as needed.

Find the modules by logging in to our Education Learning Management System using your Education Sector Logon (ESL) here: https://training.education.govt.nz/

New modules are being released regularly between now and Term 1 next year, so it’s worth checking back in to see what’s available. Here’s what’s ready for you to use now:

 

- An overview of the role of a principal and self-directed learning

o An introduction to self-directed learning

o An introduction to the role of tumuaki

o Guiding legislation

o Getting yourself set up

 

- Connecting with others

o Building your support networks

o Connecting with the community

o Consulting with the community

o Building relationships with whānau, hapū, and iwi

o Working with your board

 

The following modules are coming soon:

- Looking after people

- Looking after learning

- Looking after property and the digital environment

- Looking after finances

 

If you’re looking for a shorter, more conversational introduction to some of these fundamentals, you can listen to the new podcast series, The Principals. More information on that is available here
