FELE SUBTEST 1

All four Subtest 1 competencies are covered with questions weighted to match the official blueprint:

Competency 1 — Florida School Law, Ethics, and Professional Standards (25%)

Applying Florida statutes, federal mandates, and the Florida Principles of Professional Conduct to real school scenarios involving student rights, staff conduct, due process, IDEA, FERPA, and the Florida Code of Ethics.

Competency 2 — Resources, Fiscal Management, and School Finance (25%)

Understanding the Florida Education Finance Program (FEFP), FTE calculations, budgeting processes, fiscal accountability, and the equitable allocation of resources to support student achievement.

Competency 3 — Organizational Theory, Management, and School Operations (30%)

Applying organizational and change management theory, school safety requirements, SAC governance, scheduling, facilities, and operational systems that support an effective and compliant school environment.

Competency 4 — Data-Driven Decision-Making and Vision/Mission (20%)

Using data to establish and communicate a shared school vision, drive strategic planning, build a school improvement culture, and make leadership decisions grounded in evidence rather than assumption.

Who This Is For

Educators actively preparing for the FELE who are pursuing a school administration or principal licensure, completing a graduate educational leadership program, transitioning from a classroom or instructional coach role into school leadership, or retaking Subtest 1 after a previous attempt.

Why This Works

Subtest 1 trips up candidates who treat it like a content knowledge test. The FELE tests judgment — how you navigate competing legal obligations, how you manage fiscal constraints, how you respond to operational crises, and how you build systems that serve every student. Every question in this resource is built around that standard.

Know the law. Lead the school. Pass the exam.
