This book is dedicated to an analysis and synthesis of research on
strategy and school leadership, with the ultimate goal of
suggesting a new research programme. Each chapter takes up this
challenge through different means, resulting in an overview of the
construct of strategy within the practice of school leadership. It
is hoped that each of these chapters encourages students,
practitioners and scholars to continue to investigate this
important topic and to undertake the methodological challenges set
out to advance our understanding of strategy and school leadership
in managerialist times. Despite maintain a primarily scholarly
focus - as such a focus is exceedingly important for the
advancement of any domain of inquiry - it is also recognised that
many of the ideas discussed have profound practical significance
for schools and those who lead and manage them. The arguments in
this book, particularly those in the latter chapters seek to expand
the horizons of scholarship and understanding on the topic of
strategy and school leadership. Although this should not be
interpreted as a prescriptive call for how further inquiry should
be undertaken, it is but one voice in the conversation. The
reviews, studies, analysis and proposed research programme of this
book argue that the strategies of school leaders are of
considerable theoretical and practical importance to schools, the
governance of schooling and the behaviour and performance of
schools. While this book offers a blueprint for further inquiry, it
remains for the reader to accept the challenge. Doing so will
enable important new insights into strategy and school leadership.
