The role of Teaching Schools ...
Ashton-on-Mersey is an outstanding school…
Outstanding leadership and management have enabled the school to go from strength to strength in developing the services it provides for students. The collaborative partnership that makes up the school’s leadership, with unstinting support from governors, has given the school a clear direction for continuous improvement.
The system of distributed leadership, accompanied by high levels of accountability, works exceptionally well in all aspects of the school’s work.
‘One of the barriers to distributed leadership is how leadership distribution is viewed by heads and teachers’
Harris 2008
Delegation …
off-loading extra work to staff?
erosion of power & loss of control?
protection of ‘strategic space’?
creation of a shared purpose?
succession planning?
‘Growing leaders is like growing fruit trees. Other owners may one day have the benefit of your trees, but maybe you will benefit from other unknown owners of orchards.
The best organisations take pride in the fact that they grow more leaders than they need; they are net exporters of leaders.’
Steve Munby 2008
