BCPVPA- Foundations for New School Leaders

In early July, I attended the Foundations for New School Leaders conference, hosted by BCPVPA, which centered on "Leading, Learning, Living in Relationship." One of the presenters, Carolyn Roberts from UBC, focused on circle work and is the author of Re-storying Education. The conference included sessions on psychological safety and decision-making, along with an exploration of leadership competencies aimed at growing the capacity of self and others. Participants engaged in case studies and reflections throughout the day, explored BCPVPA supports and services, and emphasized the development of a culture of curiosity and inquiry, concluding with a closing circle.
