Abstract / Description of output
The purpose of this paper is to set an agenda for research and informed practice. It
provides the opportunity to explore the space between espoused values and leadership
practice, the points of translation and mistranslation. The focus for discussion is threefold.
First, it seeks to explore what place (if any) social justice values play, as articulated in
leadership standards, in setting expectations for and legitimising the actions of school
leaders. Second, it provides the opportunity to discuss how we might investigate this and
how we might engage the profession in this endeavour. Third, it provides the space to
explore how we could develop the interface between a Scottish Network and an
international research project. This study is aligned to the conference theme, ‘educational
policy and practice: can leaders shape the landscape?’ in its focus on exploring with school
leaders how they strive to embed social justice values in school practices.
