School leaders play a pivotal role in affecting the climate, attitude, and reputation of their schools. They are the cornerstone on which learning communities function and grow. With successful school leadership, schools become effective incubators of learning, places where students are not only educated but challenged, nurtured, and encouraged.

In this episode, we bring back a previous awesome guest, Rob French, the Principal at Kilvington Grammar School in Melbourne. Kilvington is a K-12, co-ed independent school. Rob has been the principal at Kilvington for over a year now and we’re going to dive into what it’s been like for him.

Rob will touch on topics such as:

One of the highlights of the episode will be Rob’s vulnerability regarding his engagement in self-care practices that have enabled him to be a great school leader, the importance of being a collaborative principal who leverages the strengths and views of their team to achieve school goals, and so much more. Stay tuned for more and enjoy!
