How to Lead a School by Robert Gullifer
Targeted primarily at those running a school, or contemplating doing so, this book talks frankly about the pleasures and pitfalls of the job, common to all schools across the world. Each chapter considers in detail the different constituencies a Principal or Head will encounter.The book endorses good practice, highlights some tricks of the trade, asks questions to provoke thinking, and includes imaginary case studies.
Covid-19 may have disrupted conventional ways of education but has not significantly re-defined school leadership. Rather, it has put even greater pressure on school leaders to meet the demands of their existing constituencies. So this is a handy 'go-to' guide, written from experience of over 20 years in senior leadership, as a school inspector and as a member of several school boards.
It's not another manual on leadership theory because it concentrates on immediate practical responses to the landscape a school leader will face, including a final chapter on personal well-being and how to survive the unexpected.
