This is the third webinar of the 2021 Learning for All series which took place on Wednesday, 24 March at 4.30pm. The webinar was called ‘Leadership at all levels - Connecting, Partnering, and Empowering Others'.
The focus of this webinar was on leadership in our schools during the phased reopening, with an emphasis on the importance of connections and partnerships within the school community. Schools are complex, evolving places, where effective and sustainable leadership can be a challenging task.
The panel explored the role played by the entire school community in leadership and the role it plays in empowering teachers, parents, students and others. There was a particular focus on middle leaders in the broadest sense of that term.
The panel included:
Facilitator - Tomás Ó Ruairc, Director of the Teaching Council
Cillian Doyle, Student in Wexford CBS
Jennifer Cherry, Parent and ATP Lead in St Francis Xavier Junior National School
Linda Rogers, Teacher in Ramsgrange Community School, Wexford
Rachel O’Connor, Principal of Ramsgrange Community School, Wexford
Stephen Gammell, Team Leader with the Professional Development Service for Teachers (PDST)
