School leaders know that instructional leadership is a crucial
aspect of education. However, many of those leaders lack the
knowledge and credibility to lead this work. Leaders must be
empowered to enter into and guide instructional conversations while
building leadership capacity of their teachers in the process. It
is easy for administrators to get caught up in the daily managerial
tasks of running a school. Passionate educators become principals,
however, to make a positive impact on the classroom opportunities
and experiences of young people. Because principals may not be
experts in all areas of instruction, they must develop their own
skills to become genuine participants in instructional
conversations. However, the task of a true leader is also to
develop the leadership capacity of those around them to ensure that
best practices are embraced in all classrooms. The most important
and consequential work in schools is happening in the trenches.
Principals must commit to join their teachers in that space. With
these new skills and a renewed commitment to genuine instructional
leadership, administrators can work collaboratively with teachers
to transform the educational experience of all students.
