LEADERSHIP RATIONALE
Leadership within a culture of:
• Collaboration
• Professional Reflection and Enquiry
• Improving outcomes for learners
• Coaching/Mentoring approaches
Effective and inspirational leadership begins in the classroom and is linked to an understanding of the wider educational and social contexts. Such leadership must be relevant to the core purposes of education.
