Changing with the Profession: Guidelines for School Leaders
Date, Location

Description:
For too many years, educational change has been imposed on teachers
through waves of reform that ignore professionals, overtake each other and
wash over the schools, leaving only superficial changes in narrow areas of

on leading edge and high performing practice from around the world that
produces positive improvement, dynamic innovation and increased results by
working with the teaching profession as enthusiastic partners in the change
and innovation process.
Facilitator:
The resource person this year is Andy Hargreaves. Andy Hargreaves is the
Thomas More Brennan Chair in the Lynch School of Education at Boston
College. Before moving to Boston, he taught primary school and lectured in
several English universities, including Oxford. Prior to coming to Boston
College, he was co-founder and director of the International Centre for
Educational Change at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education in
Toronto. His more recent books are Sustainable Leadership (with Dean
Fink-2006), Change Wars (with Michael Fullan-2008), and The Fourth Way
