Management and Leadership 1 - The Socio-Political Context of Teaching - ECH315
This unit challenges and supports students to critically engage with the macro context in which they teach. The unit provides students with essential information pertaining to the political framework of education and the legal and professional accountabilities teachers are required to uphold. Students will develop foundational understandings of the roles and responsibilities teachers and effective managers and leaders in schools and early childhood settings have. More broadly, students will consider the potential for teachers to practice as advocates for a socio-political context that supports quality early childhood education and promotes the professional status of teachers.
