Live Recording: Assistant Principal Chat
from Teach Starter Hosted by Teach Starter
A career in education can look vastly different from one professional to the next. And over time, professional goals take different shapes. So what your ideals are as a preservice teacher are can evolve during your career. Employment options in the education sector are incredibly varied, which is just one of the reasons the teaching profession is so enticing to school leavers. Some of us are adamant that we’re destined for a lengthy career in the classroom, delivering curriculum, assessing, but importantly, building relationships with students. But others have aspirations to be school leaders. But that’s not to say it’s a trade-off. In the role of deputy or assistant principal, head of curriculum, head of department, or indeed school principal, educators still influence, inspire and engage with students on a daily basis. They also coordinate and support school staff, mentor establishing and beginning teachers, are an integral part of a school’s behaviour management program, and much, much more. If you’ve ever so much as thought about what it would be like to become a school executive, this is the episode for you. I’ll be talking with two teachers who made the decision to step into school leadership without sacrificing their classroom teaching roles.
