Improving School Leadership - Methodology

Methodology

The activity consists of two complementary strands: an analytical strand and case study strand. All participating countries are involved in the analytical strand, producing a country background report within a common framework. Additionally, a small number of case studies of innovative practices in school leadership as well as in the preparation and development of school leaders will complement the work by providing examples of good practice. This approach permits the collection of information necessary to compare country developments while at the same time generating more innovative and forward looking information to support policy making and practice improvement. Workshops and international conferences will be the main venues to discuss the key issues.
