Om The School Improvement Challenge
The 2000 schools era is enmeshed in a public
discourse around improving student
performance; with increasing scrutiny being
applied to school results and the performance of
teachers. Drawing on two decades of service as a
primary school principal and coupling the
findings of a study he instigated into teacher
leadership and the principalship, Dr. Jake
Madden tells how the principal can enhance
student learning. Madden explains, through
focused case studies in several schools, that
effective schools have principals who are strong
instructional leaders and work to harness the
leadership capacities of their teachers.
This is a book for school leaders who want
insight into the capacities that come from
engaging teachers in improving school
performance.
