School Administrations
Richard Étienne announces the publication of the book he edited with Caroline Letor, Guy Pelletier, and Laetitia Progin:School Administrations at the Heart of Change: Leadership, Collaboration, and Support for Educational Teams.
This book is a valuable resource for reflection and guidance for school administrators. It examines the practices of school administrators in the French-speaking educational world, placing them within the context of ongoing changes, with the aim of identifying not only the activities but also the patterns of consistency that administrators have actually established.
The authors outline four major challenges faced by school leaders: 1. Leading a school that serves all students 2. Building partnerships and collaborations to develop leadership skills 3. Fostering and supporting teacher engagement 4. Developing the skills needed to supervise and evaluate teachers’ work, particularly through career meetings and classroom observations.
