School leadership and management are fundamental components of
school improvement. This is the first study of its kind to relate
the principles of effective leadership to the broad spectrum of
school life in Ireland. A key resource for school leaders in their
personal and professional study, this book critically appraises
issues in leading and managing schools. The editors bring together
an array of renowned scholars to inform and stimulate the debate on
the future of leadership development in Irish schools. Each author
explores different perspectives and sets a framework for rethinking
school leadership and management and an agenda for future research.
The book includes in-depth discussions of a broad spectrum of
issues encountered by practitioners, such as: - justice and
equality as cornerstones of any educational system and the
challenges they pose for those in leadership positions; -
principles of good governance; - the key positions of
accountability and leadership of change. Inspiring and informative
in its style, the authors bring together a range of perspectives on
every aspect of school leadership and management, from well known
contributors such as Michael Fullan, Ciaran Sugrue and Marty
Linsky, creating a unique and rich canvas. Focusing on national and
international perspectives this book adds to the growing canon of
international studies of school leadership. With a unique Irish
perspective on Leadership and Management, this book provides an
authoritative reference point for practitioners, scholars and
students of educational leadership and management, as well as for
policy makers in Ireland. It is also extremely useful for
practitioners, scholars and students nationally and
internationally.
