Educational Leadership Feedback Instrument (ELFI)

The ELFI has been designed to allow Principals, Assistant Principals and aspirant leaders to gain unfiltered feedback from a range of sources. The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) collaborates with Full Circle Feedback in the delivery of the 360-degree feedback survey instrument.

Principal for a Day – National industry/education partnership program

The mission of Principal for a Day™ is to increase and strengthen relationships, based on knowledge and understanding, between the private sector and education. Partnerships between key leaders in education, business and the wider community are especially important. There is ample evidence, from OECD in particular, on the strong relationship between education and employment, and social harmony and economic prosperity, at individual and societal levels, is well supported.
