What is our best present understandingof good school leadership?How do I lead my school to make itrelevant to students of the 21st century?The idea for this book grew out of aninternational conference organized by theNational College for School Leadership,An International Future: learning frombest practice worldwide, which exploredinnovative and significant aspects ofeducational leadership and brought together internationalcolleagues to generate new understandings. The conference proved adynamic forum for debate for researchers, academics, policy-makersand practitioners. It was clear at the conference that there was aconsensus of understanding around certain key themes that crossednational boundaries. In Developing Leadership, well-knowninternational contributors explore this consensus to promote the keythemes which reflect our best present understanding of good schoolleadership, and to inform school leaders about leading edge thinkingwhich bears on their role.
These key ideas, which are highlighted at various points throughoutthe book, are built around professional learning communities;distributed leadership; strategic thinking about ICT; sustainability;internship; mentoring and coaching.

This is both a study of leadership and a research methods text. It offers an analytical description of a primary headteacher at work over the course of one school year. Using a mix of participant-observation and interviews, the book provides a portrait of this head's approach to his work - his background, beliefs, the school as a context, what he did, how he dealt with change and development, power and the personal dimension of headship. The portrait is matched to the contemporary literature and an hypothesis is formulated about primary headship and is then used to critique existing ideas about school leadership. The book also suggests ways of developing heads and school teachers.

School development and staff development are fundamentally interdependent. First published in 1994, Developing Teachers, Developing Schools presents a comprehensive examination of how In-Service Education and Training (INSET) was being utilized to enhance school performance and support individual teacher growth during the educational reforms of the early 1990s.The University of Cambridge Institute of Education had been at the forefront of this transformation, advocating the development of reflective teachers as the key to quality improvement in children's education. This book distils the experience of some of the brightest educators working within that constantly evolving environment of the 1990s. Reflecting on their work and charting the path forward for their era, they offered both enthusiasm and practical guidance to a profession that was being demoralized by the politicization of education, sustained media hostility, and the relentless pace of educational change characterizing that turbulent period.

First Published in 2001. This is the second edition of this school’s improvement handbook of staff development activities by the IQEA (Improving Education for All) project. This book is not about what changes should be introduced into a school but rather about creating the conditions for supporting those changes which schools or individuals believe should be introduced. To be effective at managing change schools and teachers need to modify the internal conditions of the school at the same time as introducing changes in teaching or curriculum. The book therefore provides ideas and materials to help colleagues in school to create such conditions and suggests a strategic approach.
