School Leaders Development Program
3 weeks ago
The purpose of the School Leader Development Program is to build capacity in school leaders in the school district. School District No. 8 (Kootenay Lake) is establishing a new cohort of SLDP interns for a 2-year term starting in September 2024.

• You are focused on student achievement, supporting all learners to reach their potential, and educational innovation.
• You offer excellent communication, interpersonal, organizational, and team-building skills.
• You are a facilitator of curiosity and inquiry and champion inclusion, equity, and Indigenization.
Successful candidates will demonstrate:
• Knowledge of current curriculum initiatives and pedagogical practices
• Excellent interpersonal, communication, organizational and team-building skills
• Evidence of informal leadership and a strong work ethic
• Evidence of reflective, lifelong learning
Qualifications:
• Valid BC Teaching Certificate
