Head of Post Diploma School - Bergamo, Italia - Leonardo School

Descrizione

Description
We put learners and learning first. Learning is affected by both internal factors (such as emotions,

motivation and general health and wellbeing) and external factors (such as environment, curriculum and

relationships). The Head of School is ultimately responsible for the quality of learning within their school

and influences this through leading, engaging and motivating their teaching and school support teams and

working in partnership with them to harness positive factors and mitigate or overcome those that detract.

At ISP, everyone is a learner. So as one of our Heads of School, you are also a learner. Your ability to

embrace and model a growth and development mindset, demonstrating a desire to learn and build on

your capabilities, as well as fostering the learning and growth of your team, will be fundamental to your

school's success.

Learner (ISP definition)

The ISP learner recognises that their mindset, experiences and actions drive their learning

outcomes. With this awareness, they exercise voice, choice, and ownership over their process of

learning - leading their learning and the learning of others.
