Assessing Principal Effectiveness for Improved Student Achievement Principal leadership is an essential element of successful schools. Effective learning-centered leadership is at the intersection of two dimensions: core components created through key processes. Core components refer to characteristics of schools that support the learning of students and enhance the ability of teachers to teach. Key processes refer to how leaders create and manage those core components. Come find out which core components and key processes are crucial practices that promote effective school leadership and improved student achievement.
