This document discusses teacher development and continuous professional development (CPD) as key aspects of education leadership. It presents CPD as having two frameworks: 1) types of skills and knowledge teachers should develop (ingredients), including educational, technical, and personal ingredients; and 2) methods of providing development (inputs), including through other teachers, other schools, and experts. The document provides examples of each and advocates for school leaders to create a development plan for teachers that identifies needed ingredients and planned methods to provide development opportunities. Overall, the document emphasizes that development is crucial for education leadership and improving quality education.

such as timekeeping, personal behaviour, learning,
teaching, managing

values

10. Development means?
 But development is not just a list of words
 It is not just a management task
 For it to be a feature of Leadership, it has to be a
“state of mind”, something that is inside you,
something you are always concerned with
 It is almost part of your personality, something you
either ARE or you ARE NOT
 This is why many Heads are NOT leaders and why
many schools do NOT develop. YOU must change!

11. Development means?
As a Principal you should be developing TWO things?:
Nepal Schools Aid Academy
The School
Buildings
Hygiene
Resources
Finances
Quality
Standards
The Teachers
Skills
Knowledge
Attitudes
Motivation
Techniques
Methods
A Manager only manages these things as tasks
But a Leader wants to continuously develop them

12. Education Leadership-Review
An Education Leader:
1. Has a big VISION of a better school
2. Has strong VALUES with high standards
3.Wants to continuously DEVELOP the school
and staff
This is what makes a leader different from a
manager
