The Relevance of Instructional Leadership by Social Market Foundation

The Relevance of Instructional Leadership helps readers develop critical skills that can be applied in the school environment to foster student achievement. The articles underscore the importance of setting the tone for clear, high expectations in teaching and learning and building a positive culture where academic success can flourish.

In Chapter 1, readings discuss implications of accountability linked to school reform, global dynamics of school leadership, and the challenges at play for various states, districts, and institutions. Chapter 2 speaks to instructional leadership as a necessity of school improvement and reform, the critical nature of school culture in instructional leadership, and how instructional leadership is distributed within schools. In Chapter 3, readings focus on the relationship between instructional leadership and the classroom. The importance of pre-observation conferences, the characteristics of effective feedback, and teacher and curriculum development are addressed. The final chapter features case studies to assist in implementation of effective instructional leadership at an institution.

The second edition has been revised to align with National Educational Leadership Preparation Standards (NELP). It includes five new readings that encourage a data-driven decision-making culture, formal observation, and professional development.

The Relevance of Instructional Leadership is an ideal resource for education course and programs with emphasis in school leadership. It is also a valuable text for practicing school leaders and administrators.
