Abstract [eng] |
Preparation for school leadership is increasingly regarded as a vital component of school improvement. In Lithuania it is widely accepted that school heads play a vital role in setting the direction for successful schools, but existing knowledge on the best ways to prepare and develop highly qualified candidates is scant. The purpose of this article is to highlight the methods of experiential learning employed in principal professional preparation and professional development programs in an international perspective as well as to gather advice and insights from Lithuanian school leaders, who are already in post, on how to prepare and support the next generation of school heads through professional development programs. |
