This paper examines literature about
good practices in developing capacity for school leadership,
identifies key good practices in the Jamaica National
College for Education Leadership Program and reports on
leadership practices of principals who were trained under
this program. Literature recommends, the following good
practices many of which were also found in the Jamaica
program: (i) standards-based curriculum emphasizing
instructional leadership, organizational development and
change management; (ii) field-based internships with skilled
supervision; (iii) cohort groups that create opportunities
for collaboration and teamwork in practice-oriented
situations; (iv) active instructional strategies that link
theory and practice, such as problem based learning through
case studies; (v)competence-based training and
certification; and (vi) strong partnerships with schools to
support quality, field-based learning.
