Description
This book brings together for the first time a collection of Professor Les Bell's work on educational leadership and management. His discussion of the key themes and issues in educational management and leadership from the early stages of his career to the present is located within a broad analysis of educational policy and reflects a particular consistency of thought. He explores many of the main areas in the field of leadership and management in education, including leading and managing professional development, staff and performance management, accountability, the management of primary schools and strategy and planning in schools.
