Deputy Principal Support Group - Face to Face Session
Deputy Principal Support Group - 01st Oct 2024
Mayo Education Centre is delighted to be in a position to offer support to Primary Deputy Principals by means of a Primary Deputy Principals Support Group. It is intended that this group will meet approx. 4 times a year (i.e. once a term) .
The support group will be facilitated by Sharon Brady, Deputy Principal at Scoil Phádraig, Westport. Participants can attend face to face at Mayo Education Centre .
Participants will also have access to a Primary Deputy Principal’s What's App Group for support, communication and sharing of ideas outside of the regular meetings.
As part of this DP’s Support Meeting, Orla Dempsey will present a short 30-minute presentation about ‘Strengths-Based Leadership For Deputy Principals’ and 10 minutes for Q&A.
This brief presentation will discuss how teachers can…
● Develop an awareness of the 60 strengths as defined in the Strengths Profile Psychometric assessment
● Be more effective in their roles as they do more tasks in their zone of genius
● Understand how having an increased vocabulary around strengths can enhance professional conversations, increase self-awareness and develop the leadership capacity of teachers
● Aid teachers in giving feedback to teachers and students.
The presentation will include handouts and a short reflection period for teachers to pinpoint their own realised strengths.
