The way we look at it
JP’s Leadership philosophy is unsurpassed. Our belief draws on a wide base of research that addresses not only the importance of clear and proactive leadership, but also lays out a concise blueprint of how to apply this research to the day-to-day operation of a school.
If, as research indicates, the teacher is the most important factor in the classroom, the principal (and the leadership team) are the most important factor affecting the school. When these elements – teacher and leadership – are bound together by a common vision and mission student achievement increases.
Each of the five JP Associates domains Leadership, Positive School Culture, Instructional Management, Responsive Coaching, and Curriculum consist of a series of strands which represent a major concept that when woven together result in the successful establishment of the desired domain. The four strands that comprise the Leadership domain are:
- Introduction & Overview (Define responsive)
- Defining & Describing the Responsive School
- Identify the Common Elements
- Characteristics of Effective Teachers
- Closing the Gap
- Teacher Quality research
- The Role of the Leader
