Leadership: Cumberland City Council Learning and Leadership Program: Research and Evaluation Report

Research output: Book/Research ReportResearch report

Abstract

The early childhood education and care context is a challenging and complex environment which requires a wide range of knowledge and skills from the educators who work there. They provide leadership to children's learning, manage and negotiate complex relationships with children, families, colleagues, other staff and agencies, yet they do not always identify as confident leaders. This research report investigated the impact and output of a bespoke professional learning program involving 25 early educators designed to extend and consolidate early childhood leadership capability. The research findings indicate that the program successfully met the aims of the professional learning, engendered enhanced leadership capacities and enabled sustainable, transferable skill development.
