Improving School Leadership
Ongoing professional development, especially in the area of leadership is a vital part of the ongoing task of the school principal. Here is an executive summary of the latest OECD Report on this aspect of life for our busy principals.
Application Forms and Contracts
The INTO, CPSMA, Church of Ireland Board of Education and the Department of Education and Skills have reached agreement in relation to a standard application form for primary teaching posts. Schools may use this form as an alternative to seeking a curriculum vitae and the form is available to download from the INTO and CPSMA websites and can also be uploaded to web-based advertisement for posts.
INTO has agreed this form in an effort to reduce paperwork and costs, both for teachers applying for posts and for principals in handling applications for posts. The form asks teachers to set out their qualifications and experience as well as offering opportunities for giving additional information not covered by specific questions.
This follows on from a previous initiative by Management and INTO to agree a standard application form for principal teacher posts.
