Description
Leading a school, a community of young people and adults, is a privilege.  School leaders have the opportunity to inspire others.  Those who step into school leadership do so with intention, passion and purpose. They want to make a difference. But school leadership is extremely challenging.  Ever increasing expectations and reduced resources mean that many leaders can feel overwhelmed. This book supports new, aspiring and experienced school leaders to stay connected to their purpose and intention. To value themselves, their school and their leadership role. It shares stories from the HeadsUp4HTs community enabling school leaders to learn from school leaders. It sets out clear, pragmatic and practical strategies to help school leaders to prioritise their wellbeing, remain true to purpose and be the school leaders they set out to be.
