Implementation of ideas about school leadership and equity Sample Clauses

Implementation of ideas about school leadership and equity. As stated previously, the literature on school leadership puts forward three dominant models of leadership: transformational; distributive and instructional. These models are readily adapted within the literature on school leadership and equity to serve the interests of social justice, and writers typically focus on: (i) distributive justice, or the fair distribution of social and material goods (Yavuz, 2010); (ii) a cultural approach, where marginalised groups are more strongly acknowledged and supported (Xxxxxxx & Xxxxx, 2002); and (iii) relational or participatory justice, where individuals are empowered to take a full part in relationships and in society (Lumby, 2013a). These categories of social justice are not discrete, nor are they aligned to particular models of leadership. In much of the literature all three approaches are described simultaneously, to produce what might be described as two main “paradigms of action”: (i) the cultivation of critical reflection, where educators look inwards to discover and challenge personal beliefs about equity, and/or teach for critical engagement (ii) the cultivation of a common vision, where educators look outwards to negotiate a shared policy on social justice (in some instances this common vision is co-created with pupils and the wider community). In order to consider the value that authors attach to these paradigms of school leadership and equity, accounts of how various strategies have been successfully implemented in schools are detailed below. While this appraisal of practical ideas for policy implementation is by no means exhaustive, it should be noted that, within the literature on school leadership and equity, there is a paucity of guidance for practitioners on how they might enact leadership strategies for social justice (Xxxxxx, 2012).
