Synopsis "Educational Leadership in Aotearoa New Zealand: Issues of Context and Social Justice"
Early childhood and school leaders are key members of our society, charged with one of the most important roles we can give a profession--the education, achievement and care of our children and young people. This book presents 10 inspirational case studies of how centre leaders, principals and leadership teams in high-needs New Zealand educational settings have enacted leadership towards a more equitable and democratic society. These stories share experiences of challenging leadership in diverse urban and rural contexts across early childhood, primary, intermediate and secondary schools.The research base of this book is taken from an international 20-country research study into how "social justice" and "high needs" are defined in different countries and how we might better prepare educators to lead for social justice in an increasingly complex world. Typically, such needs are defined within the concepts of social/economic disadvantage and ethnic groupings; however, New Zealand findings showed the definition of high needs to be much broader than expected.This book is written for early childhood, primary, intermediate and secondary school leaders and teachers; providers of educational leadership professional programmes and tertiary courses; and education system leaders.
