This research-based book focuses on the development and evolution
of the School for Student Leadership (SSL), an alternate and unique
residential school for year-nine students, operating in Victoria,
Australia. It traces the journey of the SSL, a state secondary
school, from a single campus in 2000, to its current three
campuses, with more to come in the future. The book documents the
key findings and insights from a university/school research
partnership spanning a 16-year period. Central themes running
throughout the book include the importance of social and emotional
development/competence to support and guide learning in
adolescence; the nature and value of adolescent leadership;
relationships and community as foci of middle-years education
together with what constitutes a modern 'rite of passage'. The book
explains how, in this particular alternate setting, deliberate
steps have been taken - and responsively changed over time - to
develop knowledge, skills and competencies, which enable the
building of meaningful and sustainable relationships and social and
emotional competence within the community. Many of the lessons
learned in this setting reveal the potential for transference into
mainstream educational settings, to enable all year-nine students
to receive the same opportunities to grow and develop as those who
have attended the SSL.
