## North Carolina Principal Portfolio Assessment (NCPPA)
School leaders have the ability to create a school with meaningful achievement goals and expectations, respectful and trusting relationships among the adults and the students, and effective programs and practices—a place where all students can learn and feel safe and supported. Leaders base their work on their leadership knowledge; skills and dispositions; evidence and research; and the commitment of staff, families, and the community. To help ensure that school leaders are effective, all candidates seeking principal/assistant principal licensure in North Carolina now must meet state performance assessment requirements.
Toward that end, the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction has supported the development and implementation of the North Carolina Principal Portfolio Assessment (NCPPA). The NCPPA assessment system is designed to produce clear evidence of a candidate's readiness for an initial school leadership position. It is aligned with other North Carolina leadership development efforts to prepare, support, and evaluate principals and assistant principals.
The NCPPA is aligned with the North Carolina Standards for School Executives, the national performance assessment requirements of the Educational Leadership Coordinating Council (ELCC) in its national accreditation program and policy standards, and the Interstate School Leadership Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) 2008.
With the passage of Session Law 2024-57, any candidate who has not completed at least one course towards a degree or licensure-only program by August 31, 2025, will be required to complete the NCPPA for obtaining a principal license. Candidates are required to register for and pay a fee to complete each NCPPA task.
Format
Performance assessment consisting of three leadership tasks:
– Task 1: Leadership through a Vision for High Student Achievement
– Task 2: Instructional Leadership for a Professional Learning Culture
– Task 3: Leadership in Observing, Assessing, and Supporting Individual Teacher Effectiveness
Each task is divided into four components of leadership action that reflect the cycle of leadership inquiry and learning, as shown below.
