Each capacity partner coaches a single principal as they are guided through a set curriculum to develop a strategic plan for their school. Over 10 months, the capacity partner and principal meet once or twice a month to discuss key aspects from the curriculum.
Capacity partners receive training and support for their role; they have a specific job description and are provided with workshop guides and suitable reference material. They typically attend two or more workshops with their principal and help to unpack key learnings. Capacity partners are also invited to Alumni Learning Events which deepen and extend the learning.
Capacity partners say they value the opportunity to develop their leadership styles and coaching outside of their own organisation, whilst making a real difference to the lives of hundreds of young people.
