Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership - AITSL, August 2017

... "One of the great aspects of working at AITSL and developing our resources is that we get to meet some of Australia’s best school leadership talent and get a glimpse inside their amazing schools. Our team recently featured Monique Carter from Lansdowne Crescent Primary School in Tasmania in a video case study. Monique painted a very different picture to the tabloid ‘doom and gloom’. “One of the key roles that I have in school is to know all of my students, to have a relationship with each one of my students,” she told us. Monique has a deep and devoted connection to her students. She told us about the joy she takes in her work, and especially in “the impact that you have on student learning”.

I think that this is a great piece of advice from Monique to aspiring principals and school leaders. Despite the competing demands on your time – and there will be many – it’s important not to lose sight of a principal’s foremost priority – the learning progress of students."
Lisa Rodgers, AITSL CEO
