9781041320326: Teaching, Learning and Responsive Educational Leadership: Designing the Future in Our Schools

Synopsis

This book supports educational leaders around the world in navigating constant political pressures and rising expectations for teaching and learning. It offers a clear and accessible framework for the aims of education, the competencies students need, and the teaching strategies that support a future-ready school.

Building on their previous work on responsive educational leadership, the authors highlight the competencies that should be at the centre of learning. This volume also introduces strategies that reflect the need for both foundational knowledge and space for curiosity, inquiry, and problem-solving and shows how responsive, experiential strategies such as expeditionary learning can strengthen classroom practice. It encourages leaders to reflect on what learning should accomplish. And it provides tools and contextualised action points that prompt meaningful professional development.

This book is written for educational leaders, academics, teacher leaders, head teachers, NGOs involved in educational reform, education specialists, and anyone interested in improving teaching and learning in complex and rapidly changing contexts.
