`It should be essential reading at the National College for School
Leadership' - Michael Duffy, Times Educational Supplement, Friday
Magazine `This book continues Michael Bottery's principled and
persuasive assault on the application by policymakers of
fashionable, shallow and decontextualised solutions (in this case
leadership) to fundamental problems and issues in the definition,
design and purposes of education. It is distinguished by its
embeddedness in wider social science ideas and debates, enabling
the challenges that schools and teachers face to be set in context,
and by its sharp assessment of the impact of decades of the erosion
of trust and meaning on educational work' - Jenny Ozga, Professor
of Educational Research, Centre for Educational Sociology,
University of Edinburgh In this book Mike Bottery presents critical
issues about the purposes of educational leadership. He examines
how `official' concepts of leadership are driven by demands which
are not always to the educational, political, or social benefit of
practitioners. This book will help educational leaders and aspiring
educational leaders to examine their own values and practice.
