This Network is tailored for Principals who are either in the early stages of their leadership journey or are experienced leaders newly navigating the independent education settings in Western Australia.
Each term, this dynamic and interactive Network provides a supportive space for participants to collaborate, share insights, and tackle challenges in a collegial environment. Through themed presentations, facilitated discussions, and peer-to-peer learning, participants will gain practical strategies, build connections, and deepen their understanding of leadership in the independent school sector.
Join us to exchange ideas, explore solutions to current issues, and leverage the collective knowledge and experience of the group—all while enjoying a light lunch.
