Leadership Hour- Teachers as Leaders

Leadership Hour- Teachers as  Leaders

“All teachers are leaders” (Cosán 2014)

According to Helterbran (2010), teachers must reject the “just a teacher” mantra (p. 363). ‘The leadership and management dimension is therefore intended to assist all teachers in gaining a perspective on their own leadership roles in the school and how they can develop and expand their leadership skills over time’ (DES 2016a, p.6).

This session will be informed by current literature on teacher leadership e.g.  Meredith, E. (2007) Leadership Strategies for Teachers. Harris, 2019. Various theses on the CSL website
