Tomorrow's schools will need new forms of leadership. The old
hierarchical models of leadership simply do not fit any longer. We
need to develop new leaders at all levels of the system if we are
serious about sustaining improvement and change. But, how do we go
about this? The book focuses on the why, how and what of
distributed leadership by offering a practical insight into what it
looks like in schools. It argues that our new system leaders are
already in schools and that the main challenge is to develop them
and maximise their collective capacity to make a difference.
Drawing on the 'Developing Leaders Programme', which aimed to
develop young leaders in schools, it provides practical examples
and case-study evidence of distributed leadership in action. The
main aims of the book are to: provide a clear account of more
widely distributed leadership offer evidence about its positive
impact on organisational and individual learning give case-study
exemplars and practical illustrations of how it works in practice.
The book also considers the leadership of networks and the new
forms of partnership schools are engaged in. It looks at how
lateral capacity is built and the part distributed leadership plays
in generating leadership capacity between schools. It will be of
interest to headteachers, aspiring school leaders, teachers and
educational professionals.
