Leadership, Capacity Building And School Improvement

Leadership, Capacity Building and School Improvement provides a fresh and original perspective on the most important issues confronting today’s practitioners and academics in the field of educational leadership. New and exciting concepts are introduced such as the research-engaged school of the future. While its theoretical and evidence-based approach raises the discussion on the most important leadership challenges of the day to a robust level, the book is also intensely practical in addressing everyday issues faced by policymakers and school practitioners. The book is underpinned by a conceptual framework founded on the notion of leadership as capacity building, giving it coherence. It offers an up-to-date, authoritative, and insightful account of school leadership, drawing examples from both the Anglo-American and Asian contexts. Suitable for higher degree students, school leaders, policymakers, practitioners, and researchers in educational leadership.
