THE COMPONENTS OF SLD

  • Instructional Leadership – which is aimed at training the participants to effectively manage both staff and students and ensure that the school community is not just an institution where teaching takes place but learning actually happens.
  • Management – The idea behind this component is for the school leader not to conceptualize school as classroom based only, but to see it as a business that requires basic principles of operations management for its day to day activities.

Participants are exposed to a variety of values and new information which include:

  • Modern trends in Education

  • Theories of learning and their application

  • Social skills and Etiquette

  • Networking

  • Performance Management

  • Decision making, time management and planning

  • Technology skills

  • Customer attraction and retention

  • Keeping financial records

  • Writing and presentation skills

  • Entrepreneurship and a whole lot more.
