Collective teacher efficacy remains one of the strongest known influences on student achievement, but new research points to what’s driving it.

A principal’s own sense of leadership efficacy shapes how much confidence their teachers develop, and that, in turn, shapes what students achieve.

This session unpacks what the research says and gives district and building leaders a clear starting point for improving efficacy at every level.

Attendees will learn:

  • How principal confidence links to collective teacher efficacy and student achievement
  • Specific practices principals can use to strengthen their own sense of efficacy
  • How building leaders can translate that confidence into stronger collective teacher belief schoolwide

Register today to see how these practices can move the needle on student outcomes in your district.
