What is the role of a principal and how can a principal use their knowledge to be the best head-learner they can be?

Heinemann Author Tom Marshall discusses his approach these questions in his new book: Reclaiming the Principalship:Instructional Leadership Strategies to Engage Your School Community and Focus on Learning.

As a former teacher and staff developer, Tom writes about his philosophies behind effective leadership and what that look like? Tom says that while the days are filled with decisions we can keep our focus on student-centered learning and the school’s mission. Tom writes If you approach a problem from a learner’s perspective, it’s easier to keep learning as the focus in the community. 

We started our conversation exploring the meaning behind what a Principal can be?
