School Leadership and Education System Reform de Professor Toby Greany

School Leadership and Education System Reform

Editat de Professor Toby Greany, Professor Peter Earley
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 sep 2021
How can school leaders shape organisations that offer consistently high quality, rounded and equitable education in the context of rapid change? How can wider education systems support and encourage all schools to succeed in this way? What are the challenges and opportunities involved? What can we learn from existing evidence and research? School Leadership and Education System Reform considers the ways in which school leadership and its practice has changed and developed in response to a rapidly changing educational context over the last decade. This new edition is substantially revised and updated, with ten completely new chapters. It includes contributions from a range of leading thinkers and researchers in the field of educational leadership and management. Theoretically and conceptually informed, the contributors draw on recent empirical research studies into leadership, learning and system reform in England and more widely to explore the key issues for contemporary school leadership and management in high-autonomy-high-accountability systems. New chapters look at: · System governance and lateral accountability in 'self-improving' school systems · Leading curriculum development and accelerating progress for disadvantaged children in schools · Effective deployment of teaching assistants/leadership for inclusion · School collaboration, partnerships and 'system leadership' · Securing improvement at scale, across multiple schools and across localities · New conceptions of leadership, including ethical and invitational leadership School Leadership and Education System Reform provides accessible but research and theory-informed chapters, each of which includes summaries and suggestions for further reading.

Recenzii

Never has leadership mattered more, nor have the outcomes of schooling received such scrutiny. This book is timely. Congratulations to Peter Earley and Toby Greany and their stellar team for giving these two topics a thorough, rigorous and contemporary workout.
This timely update offers work of significance and interest that will engage a very broad cross section of readers. Whether you are just entering a career in education, undertaking research, in a leadership role, a policy maker or just interested, the work here offers several important perspectives from key leading thinkers that will both challenge and engage.
The first edition of the Greany and Earley book was exceptional, because it included so many expert voices from the leadership field. This new edition is even better, because the authors have provided updated research that encompasses the many changes that education has seen in the recent past. It is a book that needs to be read by current and future leaders!
Reading through this edition made me realise how quickly things change, and how important it is to stay connected with leadership research and the strides made in understanding system reform. This edition retains the strengths of its predecessor - the detail, the range, the research and the insights - but updates these beautifully. It's a pleasure to read.
Within this book there are real gems and some interesting accounts of professional learning, leadership and the challenges of being a GEN X leader ... It brings together many well-known authors, it covers a wide range of topics and it traverses a great deal of leadership territory.
A considerable strength of the book is the range of 'voices' included in the thirty-two authors of the twenty short chapters: academics, teachers, leaders from a range of organisations, several of whom are 'boundary-crossers' between the worlds of research, policy and practice.
The wide international research experience of Earley and Greany, drawing on the sector-leading abilities of colleagues at the IOE, has brought together a series of chapters which will be of relevance to national and local policy makers, education leaders, researchers, academics, students and practitioners ... [A] very readable compendium of current thinking on the policy and practice of system reform.
Several authors have contributed their expertise on leadership, giving different perspectives on what leadership can look like, which makes this book incredibly strong. For academics and graduate students teaching and learning in leadership programs, this book is a gem!
Highly relevant for school leaders, evidence-based, and theoretically robust, this new book contextualises and synthesises international perspectives on the contemporary challenges of improving the learning opportunities and outcomes of young people.
This volume provides an interesting and detailed selection of thoroughly researched and well written chapters that speak to a broad cross section of those interested in education. Students, academics, practitioners and leaders alike will find something of use and interest in these pages. Tackling some of the more difficult subject areas, this book does not shy away from critique and provides many interesting points for continued thought and consideration.
