The Stawisha Program aims to strengthen partner schools' leadership, improve instructional quality, and provide support to help create an environment where all students can develop the skills and strength of character to thrive and succeed. Through the Stawisha Instructional Leadership Institute, Dignitas provides training to the school leaders through Leadership Academies, Professional Development (PD) Workshops, Coaching, and Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) for a period of one year. \nLeadership Academies are intensive classroom-based training summits that introduce ideas and concepts that empower educators to be inspiring leaders and excellent teachers. The aim is to shift beliefs, attitudes and values so that educators see the potential in their schools and students. The Academies lay the foundation for educators to take charge of improving their schools and catalyzes school improvement efforts. Professional Development Workshops provide targeted development opportunities for both school leaders and teachers that build on the foundation created in the Academies with intense modelling and practice. Coaching provides personalized, in-class mentoring to the educators. It focuses on practical application of skills and concepts learned in training to ensure they are implemented in the classroom. Individualized coaching also ensures that each teacher receives support specific to his or her needs and abilities. Professional Learning Communities help educators to routinize sustainable reflective practice towards whole school improvement\nIn 2020 and 2021, Dignitas partnered with 20 schools from Ayiengo and 22 schools from Awach zones respectively; reaching 168 School Leaders (80 were recruited in 2020 and 88 in 2021).
