The collected data reveals Northern Territory principals are overwhelmed by administrative burdens, infrastructure concerns, technology limitations and inadequate support systems, all significantly impacting your ability to function as educational leaders.

Remote schools face particularly acute challenges.

The reports have been distributed to all NTPA members and DET CE and DCE Executive staff and has directly influenced the formation of four new principal reference groups addressing Administrative Burden.

NTPA looks forward to continuing to work with the Department of Education and Training to act decisively on these findings, working collaboratively with principals/assistant principals to implement meaningful changes that will enhance educational leadership and outcomes across the Territory.
