System leadership is a new, exciting and growing phenomenon in education. It refers to leadership that goes beyond a single school, where leaders work directly for the success of students in other institutions as well as their own. In this inspirational book, the authors offer you new perspectives, support and guidance - whether you are a school leader, policy-maker or advisor - and show how working collaboratively can bring about positive change. They encourage you to innovate, develop rigorous partnerships, take risks and deploy resources creatively in order to build sustained improvements in learning and well-being. This book provides the first in-depth analysis of a term on the lips of many. There is detailed reference to real cases of system leadership, recent legislation and relevant literature. School-led system leadership is seen to offer a means for professionals to take more control of educational renewal. This book is indispensable reading for school leaders and senior teachers, policy makers and advisors, and anyone involved in education and its leadership. Book jacket.
