Principals' Leadership Academy 2025

The next intake of the PLA will be in 2025. Led by Professor Ethan Bernstein (Harvard Business School), this will be a valuable opportunity to:

• Gain exposure to the best, leading-edge approaches to managing human capital within complex organisations.
• Work with Principals, in and outside of school, to help translate global approaches to managing human capital into applications within the context of managing schools.
• Gain the know-how to improve your school and develop as a more effective leader.
• Strengthen your network with others in the cohort, giving you ready access to a set of collaborators with whom to continue developing yourselves as leaders.
