Educational Leadership Survey - Tracey Harnett

Tracey Harnett was confirmed as principal early this year after being Acting principal in 2015. The Board is very pleased with Tracey’s performance and have been working to ensure that Tracey is well supported, which has included having a mentor as part of the First-Time Principals’ programme.

As part of the First-Time Principals’ programme, Pinehill staff undertook an Educational Leadership Survey at the beginning of 2015 and then again at the end of 2016. The purpose of the survey was to provide an assessment of performance and feedback for Tracey Harnett.

We are pleased to be able to share the results of this survey

There are three graphs which show the following:

1) Teaching Work and Experience - this graph indicates staff morale and the extent to which staff enjoy their job.

2) Principal Leadership - this graph indicates the extent to which the staff view Tracey Harnett's effectiveness as a principal.

3) Ensuring a Safe and Orderly Environment - this graph indicates the extent to which the staff view their workplace as being a positive, safe and supportive environment for themselves and their students.

Green - beginning 2015

Red - end 2016

We are delighted with the results which compare very favourably to the national norm.
