The International Confederation of Principals

The ICP was established in 1990 by Principal Associations from 10 countries – Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Japan, The Netherlands, New Zealand, USSR, United Kingdom and United States of America. 

It is a global association of school leadership organisations that reaches out across four regions of the globe: Africa, The Americas, Asia & Oceania, and Europe. As such, the ICP commands a unique global position as an influential voice for school leadership.

Each member is a major organisation that supports the professional development and work of school leaders. The ICP is non-political and non-sectoral with members coming from government and non-government sectors and all educational levels. It is dedicated to the development, support, and promotion of school leadership globally.
