Edssential article from @kevbartle :
First of all, let me say that I think most members of senior leadership teams within schools do the job for all the right reasons. They do it because they care about students and their futures. They do it because they care about staff and their professional development and personal well being. And they do it because they are confident that they can help schools, students and staff achieve success through their ability to set a strategic direction, lead people towards it (sometimes from the front and sometimes from the rear) and manage the clearance of the pathway that might hinder others on their journey.
However…
It’s a big however, hence the pregnant pause.
