Description

Leading teachers are those who are reseachers and who have developed their pedagogy based on both evidence and conceptually informed practice. This book draws on three important resources: first, case studies of teachers researching and developing practice; second, research evidence on what we know about teacher leadership both nationally and internationally; and, third, models of pedagogy and teacher learning that can support the development of a teacher leadership culture within schools.
