Foundations supports new leaders to ‘think like a Principal and Vice-Principal’ as they transition to the role. The relationships and networks that are forged during Foundations will support new Principals and Vice-Principals throughout their careers. 

Developed in collaboration with education leaders and constantly evolving, Foundations has been designed to help facilitate critical transitions, both from the classroom to school leadership, and from Vice-Principal to Principal, and provides a province-wide context for educational leadership.
