Principal Training Programme on ‘Leading for Assessment’ by IOP

Principal Training

The Board therefore is also collaborating with the International Confederation of Principals (IOP) which is a global organization based in Australia for undertaking training programms on a pilot basis. The training programmes provided by IOP are characterized by a focus on strategies that have worked in schools and are backed by research. They are delivered by experienced Resource Persons (including ex-principals) with expertise in the area. They have faced similar issues of implementation and change that are confronting principals of CBSE schools at the moment. They have experienced what CBSE principals are now experiencing and are credible presenters because they have empathy with them and an understanding of the challenges now being faced by them.

The five day training programme being offered now will be provided in a 2+2+1 day model with two and a half weeks between days 2 & 3, and four weeks between days 4 & 5.

The dates for the Programmes (Program 1 and Program 2) are as follows:

Two programmes with fifty participants each will run at Delhi and Thiruvananthapuram. The venues will be communicated to the selected participants.

The five day program is designed generally, on three themes:

• Leading Change
• Linking Assessment to Teaching and Learning
• Planning for the Future

The cost per participant will be Rs.23,140/- which does not include travel and accommodation. Principals who attend this program will be provided with an array of support materials. Upon registration, participants will be provided with access to the program’s secure website where pre-reading materials will be available, as well as a pre­program survey which registrants are asked to complete prior to program commencement. These materials featuring examples of international best practice will be available through and after the conclusion of the program.

As the course proceeds, information papers, suggested strategies, support materials, policy templates, sample policies and plans and explanatory articles will be made available for use back in your school. The course is structured over 5 days in a 2+2+1 format. There will be a 3 week break between days two and three, and a 4 week break between days four and five. During these breaks, participants will be asked to undertake some activities which will apply some of the skills and strategies discussed in the program.

Those who apply for this programme will be selected on the first come first serve basis keeping representation of regions and different kinds of schools in mind. The selected participants will be intimated by CBSE. They will then submit the bank draft of Rs. 23,140/-addressed to the Secretary, CBSE payable at Delhi which will be posted at the address given below:
