The third in a series of reports evaluating a multi-year Wallace initiative explores the ways in which six districts are working to improve school leadership districtwide.
The report, Building a Stronger Principalship, describes several new measures districts are implementing, including:
- systematic support for assistant principals
- the use of performance standards to hire and evaluate principals, as well as to inform training and support for them, and
- the establishment of data systems to promote more effective hiring, identify principals in need of support and provide feedback to the programs that trained them.
