Now, more than ever, school leadership must become radically learner-centered. Leading a school is more complex today than ever before. The pandemic of 2020 exposed the difficulties school leaders face when balancing crisis management with long-term strategic thinking. School Leaders can become overwhelmed with the day to day management of a crisis. It makes you wonder, can schools stay learner-focused during a crisis?
School Leadership makes the case that there is still much a school leader can do to be proactive for their school during a crisis. This book explains how school leaders can create conditions so they can:
Focus on learners
Create and articulate a vision of learning for their school
Develop a plan to become radically learner-centered based on the tenants of The New Learning Ecosystem
Tom Butler distills his 27 years of education leadership experience into a simple "do-it-yourself" plan that you can implement in your school or school district.
