Personal Statement
As an effective leader, I focus on student achievement and the school improvement process, I actively involve myself in:
– Collaboratively developing and enacting the school’s vision, values goals and priorities for equity and excellence
– Establishing and ensuring an orderly and supportive environment conducive to student learning and well being
– Ensuring effective planning, coordination and evaluation of the school’s curriculum and teaching
– Promoting and participating in a coherent approach to professional learning and practice
– Building capability and collective capacity in evaluation and inquiry for sustained improvement and innovation
– Building relational trust and effective participation and collaboration at every level of the school community

I believe that building and maintaining positive relationships with team members and colleagues is a vital role of leadership.  My interpersonal skills and approachable personality have afforded me the respect of students, staff and community, an attribute for a quality leader.

My leadership experience of working in a multicultural school has allowed me the experience to provide culturally responsive environments for the diverse range of students.  I am able to recognise, value and respond to the needs of Māori and Pasifika learners, ensuring that their culture and identity are acknowledged and promoted.

I have had the privilege of planning, implementing and evaluating school wide and team educational and behaviour plans.  I work collaboratively with a range of agencies such as Learning Support, RTLB and other educational professionals to raise student achievement.

I am passionate about, and committed to being an active leader.  I strive to maintain te organisational skills necessary to cope with my workload, continue to develop my knowledge with PD’s and to ensure that I am able to meet set deadlines.
