This book uses practice theory to examine the role of
'middle-leadership'. In particular, it investigates the practices
of 'leading in the middle' in the cultural-discursive,
material-economic, and social-political domains - i.e., the
sayings, doings and relatings of middle leading. This perspective
acknowledges the ecological arrangement of leading practices in
schools, and the necessity of considering the unavoidable reality
of the site. The analysis is used to promote the need to view
leading in the middle as a form of praxis - a morally and ethically
informed practice that requires thoughtful decision-making and
action in situations where the outcomes are not always clear. This
book focuses on the practice of leading for those in 'middle
management' positions in primary and secondary schools, such as
those responsible for curriculum leadership, including senior
teachers, assistant principals, and curriculum leaders. In their
positions that bridge 'management' and 'the classroom' they are
significant leaders in promoting and sustaining effective pedagogy
for good learning outcomes, and they have to continue to provide
high-quality teaching in their own classrooms, while simultaneously
being a mentor, coach, supporter and evaluator for their
colleagues.
