Strengthening the Bench of Principals: Evidence and Examples from Universities, Districts and States

Effective principals produce better outcomes for the teachers, students and schools they lead. Universities, states and districts all play a role in ensuring that principals get the preparation and ongoing support they need to equip them for success.

That’s the implication of two new, comprehensive studies on principal learning – both preparation and professional development – commissioned by The Wallace Foundation. At this webinar, the researchers from the two studies will share highlights followed by a panel discussion on their implications with project directors from the initiative and leaders representing state policymakers, superintendents and the educator professional development community.
