| Abstract (English): |
Professional development (PD) is a central component of school improvement, yet much of the literature on PD spending focuses on teachers. Despite the substantial resources allocated to PD, little is known about the corresponding investments made in school leaders. This article reviews the research on teacher PD spending and uses those insights to develop a set of principles for school leaders. It also addresses the current gap in evidence about PD spending for school leaders by offering guidance on how to capture and assess those expenditures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (French): |
Le développement professionnel (DP) est un élément essentiel de l'amélioration scolaire. Pourtant, la plupart des recherches sur les dépenses en DP se concentrent sur les enseignants et enseignantes. Malgré les ressources considérables allouées au DP, on en connaît peu sur la part du DP consacrée aux dirigeants scolaires. Cet article passe en revue les recherches sur les dépenses en DP pour les enseignants et utilise les connaissances acquises ainsi pour élaborer un ensemble de principes à l'intention des dirigeants scolaires. L'article comble également le manque actuel de données probantes sur les dépenses en DP pour les dirigeants scolaires en offrant des pistes à suivre sur la manière de recenser et d'évaluer ces dépenses.
