This book introduces theories of educational leadership and management and provides examples of their translation into practice. Many students studying education no longer go directly into teaching, but instead follow a diverse range of careers associated with the education sector more widely: local authorities, think tanks, charities, school trusts, administrative, and managerial roles. This book highlights and explores these diverse pathways. For staff in schools who are currently on a National Professional Qualification (NPQ) this book gives an overview of differing leadership pathways, including senior leadership (NPQSL) and headship (NPQH), whilst also discussing the impact of system reforms (NPQEL).

Topics covered include:

strategies for leadership across primary, secondary, and higher education settings school leadership and management through the challenges of the pandemic and beyond equality and diversity and inclusive practice non-teaching leadership roles

By offering an introduction to leadership and management discourse not usually encountered until postgraduate study, this lively and accessible book is an essential read for all students of Education Studies as well as those embarking on CPD or National Professional Qualifications.

In a time of rapid educational transformation, Critical Perspectives on Educational Policy and Change offers a bold, critical and creative exploration of leadership through the lenses of ideology, history, economics, and politics. This collection brings together a diverse group of scholars, from early career researchers to established academics, interrogating how power relations operate within educational leadership amid shifting policy landscapes.Structured around three temporal axes (hindsight, insight, and foresight) and situated within various contexts - from early years, schools, further education colleges and higher education - chapter authors examine leadership in education across past legacies, present complexities, and future aspirations. From the enduring impact of neoliberal reforms to the possibilities of future policies on decolonisation and social justice, each chapter provides a theoretically rich and methodologically diverse example of leadership in action.Whether you are new to the field or seeking to deepen your critical perspective, this book is an essential resource for educational researchers, policymakers, and practitioners committed to transformative change within education.
