This book explores the development of educational leadership within
difficult contexts via the lens of a previously failing English
secondary school in an area of urban poverty. Based on extensive
interview data from 2012-2016, the authors demonstrate that the
fundamental ethos underpinning the school's improvement is a desire
to meet the needs of young people in disadvantaged communities in
order to equip them with the skills to allow them to transcend
their situation. The authors posit that this school embodies the
'comprehensive ideal' of secondary education in England: that
education should not be disadvantaged by background, and that the
state should provide free and high quality education for all. This
book will appeal to students and scholars of comprehensive
education and schools in difficult contexts.
