Posted on by Leave a comment

SIP+ En. Azudin and SISC+ Miss Mirinda’s joint visit today to the two DTP-AMAN schools on Pulau Tuba focussed on sharing progress at each school during the first half year.

SLT and MLT at each school were updated about the DTP-AMAN PPD- led Transformation(PLT) team from PPD Langkawi before sharing how the school was monitoring 2019 Plan Tactical progress.

Focussing on each school’s Strategic Plan provides a common point for professional dialogue. The role of both SIP+ and SISC+ is to provide support for SLT and MLT to improve their current systems, processes and practices resulting in better student outcomes.

SMK Langkawi collaborate with their DTP-AMAN support team.

Positive interaction between SK Pulau Tuba SLT/MLT and SIP+/SISC+

Different approaches for documenting instructional leadership practices were shared as well as how each school was analysing recent student assessments and planning for next steps. A focus on PBD is currently high priority at both schools with LW and peer coaching followed up by PLC part of the process to support teachers.

Both schools will also be supported to hold dialog prestasi at the school level in July.

While island life might be slower than life in a big city, helping to improve student and school outcomes is still “core business” and #1 priority for the PLT team at PPD Langkawi.

Mr Murthy shared his wide experience as a highly successful P/GB in Kedah prior to retirement then joining LeapEd as a DTP-AMAN coach.

Mr Murthy outlined 10 criteria in developing a positive growth mindset which contributed to his success. He shared how he used the 10 positive growth criteria to motivate and support his staff, encourage students and involve parents.

SLT engaged in a balloon activity to connect the dots between teamwork, collaboration, shared goal and positive growth mindset.

Crocodile bridge strategy was used to see how SLT could lead dialog prestasi process more effectively using a positive growth mindset. This is an area requiring more professional discussion to actively use the 10 successful criteria as school transformation leaders.

SLT created an action plan to implement in their schools which will form part of the discussion with SIP+ and SIO on their school visits after Hari Raya.

In closing the bengkel, Tn Halid bin Ali, KPPD PPD Langkawi urged SLT to focus on capacity building of their schools to impact student outcomes and to follow up/ follow through (FUFT) as leaders in their schools.
