Synopsis

School Leadership for Public Value is a timely contribution to the debate about the purpose and structure of schooling in England and internationally. It draws deeply upon the work of ten schools and describes how they created strong alliances with local communities. These alliances helped to raise the academic attainment of pupils and improve the much wider range of outcomes for children and young people. In turn, the school's resources were deployed to encourage community growth and regeneration.
