Peel Leadership Framework
Peel Leadership Framework and
   School Success Planning

            It’s not just about preparing
             for the promotion process
3 Areas of Focus and
5 Leadership Domains
 Leadership for Learning
    • Setting Direction
    • Securing Accountability

 Climate for Learning and Working
     • Building Relationships and
       Developing People

 Teaching and Learning
    • Developing the Organization
      to Support Desired Practice
    • Improving the Instructional
      Program
Developmental Continuum
This tool has been designed to:
• link and align School Success
  Planning and leadership
  development
• honour the developmental
  continuum of leadership growth
• promote reflection of leadership
  development
• identify within the five domains,
  areas of strength and next steps
• provide a common language for
  conversation and descriptive
  feedback
Personal Leadership Resources
“Effective leaders tend to possess a small but critical number of
personal leadership resources that they draw on when enacting
the leadership practices identified in this framework. These
resources are applied by effective school leaders as needed
across each of the five domains under Leadership for Learning,
Climate for Learning and Working, and Teaching and Learning
and play a key role in considering readiness for promotion.”
