Description
Leading schools is becoming increasingly complex and demanding. This book reassesses the purpose of schools, the nature of learning, and the qualities of leadership that make them authentic places of learning. The authors explore what it means to lead schools that place learning at their centre, drawing on research from seven different country projects. They identify five key principles for practice: a focus on learning, an environment for learning, a learning dialogue, shared leadership, and accountability. These principles have been tested by teachers, senior leaders, and school students across cultural and linguistic boundaries. This book aims to challenge readers with big ideas about learning and leadership, offering practical insights into how these principles can be applied in school and classroom practice. It is of interest to all school leaders and those aspiring to the role.
