Podcast Reflection #7: Driving Question: Edu Blogger Can Discussion

In this episode of Driving Questions Sue Waters, Kim Cais, Scott McLeaod, Darren Drapper and others delve into the issue of leadership in school. The comment made by the panel that stuck to me the most was that leadership depends on the schools faculty, "we could have the most motivated teacher but if the principal is not on board than it might not go anywhere."He explained that this was because the principal is the one that controls the resources, if they are not on board with the teacher's idea than they might not be going anywhere. Social norms also discourage and at times pushes teacher to try and excel within the system. Appropriate support from the leaders is crucial.
