Collaborative leadership and teamwork thrive in environments that encourage respectful communication, professional learning and quality improvement. Collaboration and teamwork optimise children’s learning, and teacher professional practice, through shared decision-making and action to support children, parents/carers and families.
Teachers and educators consider:
- the team’s strengths, knowledge and skills
- respectful, evidence-informed professional conversations
- critical reflection on pedagogies and practices
- support for each other’s professional learning and growth
- sharing information to support children’s ongoing learning and progress.
