Building off last weeks episode, we are going to dive deep into the jobs of our school leaders. This week we are taking a look at the High School Principals role.
After all my years in education, I still have no idea what the heck these people do! Are they just shaking hands and kissing babies? Who knows! Today I bring in John Marinelli, Principal of St. Thomas Aquinas Secondary School in London, Ontario. John has been a Principal for 6 years. Previous to this role, he was a Vice Principal for 7 years and also taught Social Sciences, Business studies and even in Guidance for 15 years. John received his bachelors of education from Western University.
In this episode we talk about:
- What are the responsibilities of a High School Principal?
- What are some soft and hard skills required to do the job?
- What are some of the hardest and most rewarding parts of the job?
- Are the working hours different than a teacher?
- What should listeners know if they want to become a High School Principal?
and much more!
