“The real challenge of school leadership is that it requires leaders who are not just authentic in their leadership but authentic in their humanity as well.” George, Sims, McLean and Mayer 2007

“We are clear that we must do more. Improving school attainment for all and closing the attainment gap will be a

priority. To do that we must address the inequalities which still exist within our system.”

Teacher Leadership

'At its most profound, teacher leadership offers a ‘new professionalism’

based upon mutual trust, recognition, empowerment and support. At its

most practical , it provides a way of teachers working together in order

to improve the learning experiences of young people. It reclaims

leadership as a human, collective endeavour in which all teachers play

an essential role'A.Harris, D.Mujis (2003).
