This book examines leadership within schools, focusing on securing success within a challenging social and political environment. It explores the approaches to leadership adopted by four successful secondary school headteachers in a local authority situated in an area of high social deprivation and identifies the impact the headteachers of these schools have on staff, students and community. It analyses the key leadership strategies of these successful school leaders, strategies that can be deployed in all schools, and explores the links between leadership theories and leadership actions. The book goes on to examine how these strategies were actually implemented in a failing school in challenging circumstances and shows how other schools might benefit from such strategies and the insights on which they are based 606 $aEducational leadership$zGreat Britain 606 $2Organization & management of education 615 0$aEducational leadership 676 $a371.200941 700 $aSmith$b Philip$f1971-$01243960 702 $aBell$b Les$f1942- 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154700503321 996 $aLeading schools in challenging circumstances$92885383 997 $aUNINA
