Effective School Leadership

An OECD study into improving school leadership found that policy makers from all countries need to enhance the quality of school leadership and make it sustainable.

Key points:
- School leaders need to have the authority and freedom to make decisions, alongwith appropriate support.
- Ensure leadership roles are clearly linked to pupil learning.
- Ensure distributed leadership.
- Treat leadership development as a continnum.
- Make school leadership an attractive profession.
