  Culture and Leadership in Educational Administration: A Historical Study of What Was and What Might Have Been
 
 
Title: Culture and Leadership in Educational Administration: A Historical Study of What Was and What Might Have Been
Author: Bates, Richard
Appeared in: Journal of educational administration and history
Paging: Volume 38 (2006) nr. 2 pages 155-168
Year: 2006-08-01
Contents: This paper examines the consequences for school leadership of the abandonment of Waller's insights into the school as a social organism and the embracing of the cult of efficiency as the foundation for the analysis of school culture. Tracing the separation of conception from execution, leadership from teaching, administration from education through the cult of professionalism and functionalist sociology, the paper argues that a more appropriate basis for understanding both leadership and the culture of the school can be derived from ethnographies of schooling which show the complex interactions of internal and external cultures in the construction of leadership and the culture of the school.
