Description
Distributed School Leadership: Developing Tomorrow's Leaders By Alma Harris The traditional hierarchical model of leadership is no longer suitable for schools. To sustain improvement and change, new leaders are needed at all levels of the system. This book focuses on distributed leadership, offering practical insight into its practice in schools. Drawing on the 'Developing Leaders Programme', it provides case-study evidence and examples of how distributed leadership works in action. The book aims to provide a clear account of more widely distributed leadership, offer evidence of its positive impact on learning, and illustrate its application in practice. It also considers the leadership of networks and new forms of partnership between schools. This book will be of interest to headteachers, aspiring school leaders, teachers and educational professionals who want to understand and develop distributed leadership.
