Draft revisions to the 2008 standards were completed by the ISLLC Standards Committee in 2014. The updated version, referred to as the Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSEL), reflects years of research, as well as, best practices and knowledge from experienced school leaders and district-level practitioners. The new standards challenge ‘business as usual’ as it reshapes school policy, leadership programs, and evaluations. More precisely, the standards place a higher level of expectation on schools to respond to, and plan for, diverse learners with various cultural influences. The leader must establish a community of care wherein each student is valued, respected, and emotionally protected.
