How to prepare for FELE Florida Educational Leadership Examination (FELE) Subtest 2: Leadership Practices for Student Learning

TeacherPreps preparation guidance based on the exam framework linked below. Adjust the plan to your experience and your practice results.

  1. Find your starting point

    Take the 25-question diagnostic before reading the explanations. For each missed question, note the content area and the reason: an unfamiliar concept, a misread scenario or a choice that was reasonable but not the strongest. A short diagnostic is a starting point for review, not a measure of readiness.

  2. Study the leadership content this exam emphasizes

    Knowledge of facilitation of student achievement results aligned with student learning goals and state accountability measures; Knowledge of prioritization of student learning through leadership actions that build and support a learning organization focused on student success and continuous improvement; Knowledge of development and implementation of an instructional framework that aligns school curricula with state standards, instructional strategies, student learning needs, and assessments; Knowledge of structuring and monitoring of a school environment that improves learning for all student populations. For instructional leadership, connect curriculum, instruction and assessment. Review how a leader uses assessment results to adjust instruction, how classroom observation evidence becomes specific feedback and how interventions are matched to student needs. When comparing answer choices, prefer the option that is grounded in evidence and keeps the focus on student learning.

    Knowledge of recruitment, induction, and retention practices to develop a high-performing faculty and staff. For staff development and supervision, review the cycle of observation, feedback, coaching and evaluation, and the difference between supporting growth and documenting performance. Know how a leader builds shared leadership through teams and professional learning communities, and how professional learning is planned from identified needs.

    The FELE Florida Educational Leadership Examination (FELE) Subtest 2: Leadership Practices for Student Learning study guide has 28 lessons on these topics; the first lesson is free.

  3. Allocate review time using the framework and your gaps

    Use the published content-area weights to balance your plan, and give extra time to areas where your practice shows gaps. A smaller weight does not make an area optional.

    • Knowledge of facilitation of student achievement results aligned with student learning goals and state accountability measures (20%)
    • Knowledge of prioritization of student learning through leadership actions that build and support a learning organization focused on student success and continuous improvement (20%)
    • Knowledge of development and implementation of an instructional framework that aligns school curricula with state standards, instructional strategies, student learning needs, and assessments (20%)
    • Knowledge of structuring and monitoring of a school environment that improves learning for all student populations (20%)
    • Knowledge of recruitment, induction, and retention practices to develop a high-performing faculty and staff (20%)

  4. Check understanding with fresh practice

    After reviewing a missed question, answer a new question on the same idea and explain why the correct choice is the strongest action. Members can build practice sets by content area in the FELE Subtest 2 Exam Builder. A rising score on this fixed diagnostic may reflect remembered answers, and a practice percentage cannot be converted into a scaled exam score.

  5. Rehearse the format and testing conditions

    Published testing time: 90 minutes (1 hour 30 minutes). Practice reading scenarios carefully: identify who is involved, what the leader is responsible for and what the question asks you to decide.
