What is a Professional Growth Plan (PGP)?
A 3: A Professional Growth Plan links school leaders individual professional goals with authentic school and/or district goals and needs. The plan outlines a series of self-motivated activities that the school leader will engage in over time to develop or enhance knowledge and skills that will support their work as instructional leaders. The activities will be aligned to the New Jersey Professional Standards for School Leaders and will focus on improving teaching, learning and student achievement. The plan also outlines the evidence to be assembled that substantiates fulfillment of the plan.
