This book explores a range of issues related to minority educational leaders' role in their society, in particular those working in a divided society under conflict.The political and cultural challenges faced by minorities in divided societies raise the specific and important need to study leadership from a new perspective, based on the leaders' role in their society and community, and on their role in leveraging their school toward integration in their society while staying aligned with environmental changes.The authors present a new theoretical framework of "leadership for society" with practical implications for effective leadership in complex societies. The book also develops our understanding of minority education in the reality of conflicts between the state and the minority's identity. The authors believe that school leaders’ participation in the extended community will improve and affect the development of schools and enable leaders to negotiate cultural, social and political complexities.

This book traces the policymaking processes of the Review of Funding for Schooling (2011), which fundamentally changed school funding policy in Australia. School funding is a key element of any equitable school system. This is because the distribution of government funding for schooling leads to significant differences in the educational opportunities available for individual students, schools, and communities. The book shows that although education policy is often thought about as an abstract process, it is a series of small critical moments that create the policy and progress implementation towards or away from equity in school funding. Sinclair offers a new theory for understanding and then impacting in real-time the policymaking process towards equity in school funding, the “critical moments theory”. In doing so, he identifies where education leaders, teachers, policymakers, scholars, and community members all have the agency to influence policy from conceptualisation to implementation.

In educational policy, research and practice circles, there has been much attention in recent times to the power and potential of social networks for supporting educational improvement. Improving the Relational Space of Curriculum Realisation foregrounds the potential of the relational space, and its improvement, in the context of curriculum realisation in particular.Curriculum reform is a key lever in systems’ efforts to meet ambitious goals for student achievement, progress and wellbeing. Both large-scale reform and school-level curriculum change present learning demands for school leaders and teachers alike, and they simultaneously give rise to challenges and opportunities for those charged with giving effect to them. The authors highlight the role of social capital in addressing those demands, challenges, and opportunities, emphasising the need to improve the relational space within which curriculum change takes place.Improving the Relational Space of Curriculum Realisation outlines an approach to intervention that helps educators solve problematic patterns in their networks, leverage resources better within and across school networks, and embed relational conditions that are conducive to ambitious curriculum goals being realised.
