Description
School leadership is second only to teaching among school-related factors in its impact on student learning; and school leader preparation programs play a key role in facilitating that success. As the leading voice in educator preparation, The American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education (AACTE), with support from the Wallace Foundation, engages higher education and PK-12 partners in research, professional development opportunities, and collaborative initiatives focused on strengthening the quality and effectiveness of principal preparation programs. This new podcast series, which highlights cutting edge research from the Wallace Foundation’s Knowledge Center on School Leadership is one of those collaborative initiatives.

AACTE speaks with Dr. Ellen Goldring, lead author of the Wallace commissioned report, The Role of Assistant Principals: Evidence and Insights for Advancing School Leadership about how the role of AP has evolved, and therefore, how we as educator preparation professionals should evolve our training of them.
AACTE speaks with Dr. Jason Grissom, lead author of the Wallace commissioned report, “How Principals Affect Students and Schools, A Systematic Synthesis of Two Decades of Research". Released in February 2021, this report summarizes the connection between school leadership and school outcomes, as evidenced by research advances that haven’t been properly synthesized since 2004. In our conversation, Dr. Grissom walks us through the major landscape shifts in the past 20 years, with key insights into how prep programs can be effective, equitable leaders.
AACTE spoke with the author of the Wallace commissioned report released in October 2021, How Can State Policy Support Local School Districts as They Develop Principal Pipelines?, Paul Manna, an Isabelle and Jerome E. Hyman Distinguished University Professor and the Director of Public Policy at William & Mary University. In AACTE’s conversation with Paul, we summarize the state policy levers that can be pulled to improve principal pipelines and preparation programs, and the extent to which they are effectively being used.
