This book was written to an international audience in order to provide a state-of-the-evidence description of what is missing about successful school leadership in a hyper-turbulent environment. It was anticipated that such a description would be of some immediate use and guidance to those already in leadership positions, those aspiring to be school leaders and those with responsibilities for leading schools in a changing external context. It is also hoped that the book will helped to clarify the most important questions for inquiry and offer conceptual lenses on key variables of interest to school leaders who lead schools in a changing contexts where global forces are defining, changing, and perhaps even diminishing the role of school leaders as prime leaders. ····· 10361119676

That is why currently Universities in different parts of the world are striving to enhance research and teaching nexus.

Results indicated that a large gap exists between current professional development practices in U.S. independent schools and research-based best practices for effective teacher professional learning. Potential reasons for this gap are discussed and recommendations are provided for how independent school leaders can work to move their schools closer to the standards established for effective teacher professional learning. ····· 10361119446

One of the most recent initiatives in educational reform has been district takeover of public school systems. A takeover is the commandeering of day-to- day control of district operations and decision- making in an unsuccessful or failing school district. Despite attempts by state departments and governments to takeover failing school districts, success is often short-lived and unsustainable in the absence of the takeover. As a result, efforts to either abandon takeovers as an effective reform strategy or to create long-term sustainable results need to occur. A public school district in Logan County, West Virginia is one of only three school districts reported nationwide to have sustained- success. Seven key characteristics that contributed to the sustainability of this district takeover were identified. Only through a relentless pursuit of sustained-success will answers be found to solve some of the problems facing public education in America. ····· 10361119441

It also sought to establish the level of commitment to teaching of people who become teachers due to failure to secure employment elsewhere. Two school heads and their deputies and 31 teachers participated in this study through the completion of questionnaires. The other 12 teachers were verbally interviewed. This study found out that more than 50% of practising teachers joined the profession because employment opportunities in their preferred professions were not available. It also established that some people who join teaching to escape unemployment eventually develop a liking of the profession. This study also showed that for the majority of teachers teaching was initially taken as short term occupation hence most teachers would not want to remain teachers up to retirement. The desire to leave teaching is always accompanied by lack of commitment to or negligence of professional duties Most teachers are pursuing studies to brighten their chances of leaving teaching. ····· 10361119283

The study in this book shows that secondary school teacher`s burnout is not only due to their personal problems but it is also the outcome of some factors related to a particular organisation whether private or government. If the teachers, better known as the nation builders, experience this stress in relation to person or an organisation then how would they manage their job which is an important question that we seek to answer through this book. Job burnout is a problem in many professions, but it is significantly more prevalent in this noble profession. Teachers, as well as administrators, counselors, doctors, nurses, police officers and so-on have the additional responsibility for the well being of multitude along with their routine job activities. This heavy responsibility combined with limited resources, long hours, marginal working conditions and often unreasonable demands from those receiving services, lead to chronic stress and ultimately burnout. ····· 10361118852

School fees guidelines and perhaps how they are formulated are partly responsible for high secondary school fees, though they were intended to control it making education in the district and in the country, a rich man s business and thus help in stratifying society.
