Early childhood leadership is incredibly challenging but also exciting. It is primarily focused on supporting and encouraging individual teachers to work together to make a difference for children.
Lorraine Manuela, former Director at Tots Corner ELC, and Celeste Harrington from Te Wānanga Aronui o Tāmaki Makau Rau | Auckland University of Technology bring their wealth of knowledge and experience to discuss the many aspects of leadership in early childhood education. Both have considerable experience in leadership roles in early childhood centres and explore what leadership means in early childhood education, building relationships, how to support teams to work effectively together, and the importance of pedagogical leadership.
