About this book
Focusing on the many challenges faced by school leaders in different contexts, including primary, secondary, rural, and urban settings, this book helps you find practical solutions that work for your circumstances, align with your values, and support your relationship with yourself and your people. It shows you how you can keep well, manage workload, accept differences, confront what is unacceptable, break through what's uncomfortable and awkward, collaborate, and rediscover your joy in the profession.
Based on over twenty years of lessons learnt from coaching headteachers and school leaders, People Solutions for School Leaders builds on the foundations of respect, adaptability, a coaching approach, and embedding habits.
