Examining a decade of research and practice, this book makes the
case for a radical reappraisal of leadership, learning, and their
interrelationship in educational policy. Discussing whether policy
direction is progressively constraining the professionalism and
initiative of teachers and school leaders, it challenges
conventional understanding and argues the case for thinking
differently about the way to lead learning. Based on the Leadership
for Learning (LfL) Project, the book clarifies, extends, and
refines LfL principles and practices, and their contribution to
ameliorating some of the difficult conditions encountered in the
contemporary educational policy environment. It starts by
discussing the direction and influence of current education policy
and its subsequent consequences; chapters then move on to explore
the framing values informing the LfL Projects, particularly
focusing on what they imply for commitments to social justice,
children's rights and breadth in student learning, and considering
how to create favourable conditions for learning. Identifying a
disconnect between seminal principles and the nature of day-to-day
practice, Strengthening the Connections between Leadership and
Learning challenges school policy and practice at national and
local levels. It is an essential read for postgraduate students,
especially those studying leadership in education, as well as for
teachers and policymakers in schools.
