Employment relations in state secondary and area schools: A two-day course for principals (and those who deputise for them)
PPTA and NZSTA invite principals, and those who deputise for them, to attend Employment Relations in State Secondary and Area Schools: A Course for Principals, a two-day training course that focuses on building productive employment relationships.
Wellington based course 12-13 March
This is a hands-on course that aims to enhance the skills of principals. Each course is limited to 24 enrolments.
It provides participants with practical approaches for dealing with a range of employment relations issues such as conflict resolution, interpreting the legal framework, working with the Secondary Teachers’ Collective Agreement and clarification of the roles of principals and boards of trustees.
Employment relations issues are, like bread and butter, a staple of the diet of a school’s senior management team. Not so readily available are opportunities to explore these complex issues in a safe environment with a small group of colleagues.
