520 _a"Authentic School Improvement for Authentic Leaders charts a full improvement journey of a school from a 'Requires Improvement' Ofsted rating, through a second, to a resounding 'Good'. It reveals the impact that a school leader can have on the motivation and engagement of teachers, parents and pupils and how this translates not just to their overall happiness, but on academic standards and systemic, long-lasting school improvement whilst maintaining their own well-being. Bringing together a wide range of accessible and relatable school improvement practices, the chapters cover all aspects of school leadership from operational systems to academic standards and staff morale to pupil numbers. Full of strategies, takeaways, observations and anecdotes, the book illustrates that being authentic and leading with integrity is possible for all and provides tangible results that may support positive Ofsted outcomes but are not driven by them. Including a Foreword by Ross Morrison McGill, this is essential reading for all Head Teachers and Senior Leaders in primary and secondary, mainstream and specialist, maintained and academy schools"--
