School-University Partnerships in Action: The Promise of Change
About this ebook
Over its eight chapters, the book explores uncertainties, challenges and possibilities faced by those who seek to create, develop and sustain school-university partnerships that aspire to improve the practice and understanding of the leadership of teaching and learning in schools. It explicates and elucidates precepts, principles and practices for achieving such successful partnerships between higher education and school leaders, and contextualises these in terms of policy wide developments internationally.
This book will appeal to school leaders internationally, leadership training organisations, and academics who lead postgraduate leadership and management programmes.
