Increase student learning by developing teacher leaders! Research
over the years has consistently identified leadership as a critical
component of school change and, as initiatives to reform the
educational system have emerged, one significant line of work
emphasizes teachers assuming greater leadership roles within their
organizations. Connecting Teacher Leadership and School Improvement
is the first book to synthesize theoretical, empirical, and
practice-based literature in order to provide a comprehensive look
at what is known about teacher leadership and what works to support
it. The first part of the book explores the core concepts of
teacher leadership, while the second part shows readers how to
establish the context in their school or LEA to cultivate and
support teacher leaders. A vital piece of equipment in the school
improvement toolbox, this book covers such important topics as: -
The headteacher's critical role in supporting teacher leadership -
Cultivating teacher leadership through professional development -
Overcoming organizational barriers that hinder teacher leadership -
How teacher leadership can help advance school improvement efforts
Presenting a comprehensive model of this successful change
strategy, author Joseph Murphy examines the ideological and
empirical basis of teacher leadership and offers strategies to help
teachers and headteachers create productive relationships that will
strengthen our nation's schools.
