Mrs Lal Gains ‘Masters in Educational Leadership’

Mrs Reshmika Lal has completed her Masters in Educational Leadership, gaining impressive feedback for her final thesis ‘Educational Leadership as Influence: The Provision of Critical Teacher Feedback to Students’

Mrs Lal’s thesis examined teachers’ perceptions about feedback and the ways in which educational leaders can influence teachers in providing this. The findings indicated that there was a general acceptance and awareness amongst teachers that feedback is an influential factor that supports students’ progress. The teachers emphasised that successful feedback can be provided to students if certain conditions exist.  Mrs Lal’s research emphasises that school leaders need to develop and implement a balanced professional development programme that aids in enhancing teachers’ pedagogy and, as such, improve their self-efficacy.  Congratulations Mrs Lal!
