Description: Aimed at both the practitioner and the student, the text demonstrates the links between macro-level policy decisions and micro-level school praxis, and provides a number of detailed case studies (both Australian and international) highlighting the leadership context. A brief history and overview of traditional policy and leadership models in part 1 precedes a more detailed and powerful account in parts 2 and 3, through a focus on contemporary research and analysis. the text encourages readers to think critically about the implications of policy for such educational issues as management and leadership, devolution, accountability, curriculum, gender, ethics and democracy. Contributed chapters by leading researchers in the field were commissioned specifically for the text.
