Description
Leadership for Sustainability: Saving the Planet One School at a Time
This book is a rallying cry for schools to unleash their potential to deliver a brighter future for both their pupils and society at large. Drawing on his doctoral research and 20 years' experience as a head teacher, David Dixon sets out how school leaders can embed eco-friendly practices in their schools, contributing to overall school improvement.
With a focus on the 'five Cs of sustainability' - captaincy, curriculum, campus, community and connections - Dixon provides a detailed analysis of where we are now in terms of environmental impact, and lays out a road map to help schools move towards more effective eco-friendly provision. Practical examples and suggested strategies are included to encourage further thought and discussions among school stakeholders.
