Here are my top three guiding principles for this new term: 1. Learning across borders. Every member of staff, including myself must have at least one new learning. 2. Maximize students' learning outcomes. It’s not just about teaching the content but creating the right environment, setting clear goals, and using the best strategies to meet their unique needs. It is about preparing students for success both in and out of the classroom! 3. Actively partner with stakeholders, parents in particular. Ensure that every stakeholder understands that we are all on the same side - the side of the child. What are your top three must-do in the next few months? #educatorsmakingadifference #20daylinkedinchallengewithhaoma #thoughtleader #Linkedintopvoice #educationalleadership #education #leadership #educationalconsultant #newterm #focus #Teaching #StudentSuccess #LearningOutcomes

As we flip the calendar to May, it's a natural time to reflect and look ahead! Spring is in full swing, exams are on the horizon, and the focus shifts towards preparing for the school year to end in July. So, today we want to ask you: What is one key area you're looking to improve at your school in the NEW school year? Please do share your thoughts in the comments below; you might inspire somebody else! #schoolleaders #educationalleadership #schools

Each #schoolleader tells me about their challenges. One of the recurrent themes is that their job is MUCH more than being an instructional leader. Being an effective #principal means leading a well-run organization. I recommend Death by Meeting by Patrick Lencioni to many administrators. It will provide a structure, cadence, and purpose to how we meet. Using #educators time wisely is one of the many ways we create a #cultureofcare for all of our adults in #schools.

I enjoyed the opportunity to utilize my instructional leadership skills and work with school leaders and instructional coaches sharing strategies on how to improve instruction in the classroom. 1. Effective teaching accommodates diverse student needs by tailoring instruction to individual learning styles, interests, and abilities. 2. High-quality instruction emphasizes active learning. Techniques such as project-based learning, cooperative group activities, and interactive discussions keep students invested in their education. 3. Using assessment data to inform instructional practices ensures that teaching is aligned with students' needs. Regularly analyzing performance data helps teachers identify gaps, adjust their strategies, and provide targeted support. We practiced “the how” to model these strategies for teachers to improve student learning and growth. #InstructionalLeadership #SchoolImprovement #BeTheDrivingForce

The Adaptive Leadership Model (Ronald Heifetz) can provide a framework to help classroom teachers and school leaders make the shift from the 8-4-4 system to the Competency-Based Curriculum as school systems move from a largely teacher-driven learning approach to a constructivist learning and teaching approach.

For a successful career in teaching, it's essential to cultivate a range of key skills. - Critical thinking: Enables educators to make informed decisions that benefit students' learning. - Leadership skills: Empower teachers to guide and inspire students effectively. - Conflict resolution abilities: Help maintain a positive classroom environment by addressing disputes respectfully. - Creative thinking: Helps in the development of engaging and innovative teaching techniques. By honing these skills, teachers can create nurturing and effective learning environments that support their students' academic and personal growth.🎓🚀 #TipsAndTricks #LearningContinues #EducationMatters #UnitingForEducation #LearningAndDevelopment #Educational #LearnEveryday #EducationForAll #EducationIsKey #KnowledgeSharing #EducationalTechnology #IDA

As educators, we often focus on imparting knowledge, but our impact goes far beyond the classroom. To be a truly great teacher, you must inspire and influence your students, leaving a lasting legacy. It's not just about teaching subject matter; it's about mentoring, guiding, and empowering the next generation. As a School Growth Strategist, I've seen firsthand the transformative power of great teaching. When you invest in your students' growth and well-being, you shape not only their minds but also their futures. So, I ask you: are you merely teaching, or are you inspiring greatness? Let's strive to be the kind of educators who make a lasting impact, and leave a footprint in the sands of time. Let's become the leaders our students need us to be. #EducationLeadership #TeachingIsMoreThanJustContent #InspireGreatness #LeaveALastLegacy #GCOnyekaonwu (SchoolGrowthStrategist
