Violet Mari Principal, Henry Kelsey Sr. Public School Toronto District School Board Q. What experiences help shape leadership in supporting student learning? A. Regular class profile meetings with staff have been instrumental in shaping my leadership. These meetings help ensure a deep understanding of the students we serve and identify those who require targeted supports. We establish goals and wraparound supports for students approaching grade level, enabling focused instruction and monitoring progress. Insights from discussions inform professional learning priorities for staff, strengthening instructional practices, teacher efficacy and ultimately student success.
