This free web-based toolkit is based on years of research about principals’ practices
School principals juggle a multitude of responsibilities each day, as they attempt to balance building-level tasks with administrative and district-level duties.
Now, school leaders have access to a free online learning guide, based on research about principals’ best practices, to help them strengthen their skills and leadership.
Launched by Learning Forward, a professional learning association, the online learning guide pairs excerpts from the PBS documentary, The Principal Story, with educational leadership research from The Wallace Foundation.
