Leadership Standards for Principals and Vice-Principals in British Columbia

The BCPVPA Leadership Standards Review Committee
July 2019 | British Columbia Principals’ and Vice-Principals’ Association

These leadership standards from the British Columbia Principals’ and Vice-Principals’ Association aim to prioritize student and adult development, engagement, and learning in leadership practices. These leadership standards’ main objective is to promote professional growth among school leaders. They are not intended for evaluative purposes or to dictate specific actions but to serve as a supportive tool for individual principals and vice-principals. These standards encourage self-reflection and the identification of personal learning needs, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and effective leadership within schools.
