The National Standards for Headteachers (DfEE, 2000) provides the first authoritative statement about the role of the headteacher in English schools. It represents an important element in the drive to improve school leadership by formalizing expectations and improving the criteria for training programmes. The skills needed by headteachers are clearly identified but the expectations of one individual are unrealistic. The personal qualities required in school leadership, such as the discernment to apply knowledge and understanding, are neglected. The Standards need to be based on reasonable expectations of an individual professional or, even better, a school's whole management team. They also need revision to address the personal attributes expected of headteachers. |
