About Middle Leader Induction

Middle leadership induction enables assistant principals and head teachers to:

• enhance their knowledge of the middle leader role, including key departmental policies and priorities, to effectively meet accountabilities
• strengthen their understanding of middle leadership practices to positively influence the quality of teaching and learning through the development of self and others
• develop their self-awareness as middle leaders; of who they are, what they care about and why they care, and articulate their core values and beliefs.

The program consists of 2 components: 

• Component 1: 4 self-paced e-learning modules (prerequisite).
• Component 2: 2-day virtual conference.
