3. National Assessment Program –
Literacy & Numeracy (NAPLAN)
• Students were assessed on the National level
tests in reading, writing, language conventions
(spelling, grammar and punctuation) and
numeracy
But in 2010, it
was mandatory
for schools to
publish these
results on their
web sites

4. Dilemma
• Focus lies on the challenges and opportunities
faced by school leaders in a context of data-
driven or contractual accountability
• Investigates how ethical school leadership
may operate in a context of increasing
performance-driven accountability is our
central question.
The institute is rated 5+ Stars based
on 8 categories.

5. Ethical leadership
• Ethical leaders, in this professional context,
are those who act fairly and justly.
• Principals & Dean are the puppets of the Trust
or Institution Owner.
• Where Trust wants to maximize profit, Dean
should be the epitome of leadership.
