Focuses on leadership for school improvement, looking at how heads and deputies lead, or might lead, their school's improvment efforts. This concise book, with practical illustrations, is relevant to Teacher Training Agency courses for the National Professional Qualification for headteachers, and draws upon the principles and frameworks the TTA has introduced for its headteacher programmes.
'Many heads and deputies will find useful information in this book ... Leading Improving Primary Schools will surely provide encouragement to many.' - Cambridge Journal of Education
'It is a joy to welcome a book on education on grounds of both content and style; this was a book which was well worth writing and it also happens to be very well written.' - Managing Schools Today
'His brilliance as a writer is in the balance of presenting theory with the practical day to day nature of the job ...He sets out to take us on a journey, to explore and explain leadership at the primary school level. He gives meaningful insights into how heads and deputies can lead schools in effective school improvement. He points out that for deputies to be part of a school improvement drive in any school, they must be seen as equal partners with the head ... This book is very welcome, as it explores the benefits of the head and deputy working together as a team, each with their own distinct roles and contributions.' - Educational Review
