First published in 1967, this book looks at what the role of a headteacher should be, challenging the traditional views of the head and the authoritarian structure of schools. Contributors explore new concepts of the head's role in school and authors include both theorists and headteachers coming from various backgrounds including those that are historical, philosophical, sociological, and practical. The book also benefits from some more down-to-earth musings by heads on the job. The collection as a whole offers a stimulating variety of views on a subject which is of importance to all teachers

"This book was published in Spanish in 2016, and was initially compiled in memory of Eduardo Flores Kastanis, PhD, who pioneered and promoted the Proyecto Internacional de Directivos Exitosos (International Project of Successful School Principals) in Mexico. In the Mexico volume, Dr. Flores Kastanis is honored not only as a researcher and a prominent professor, but also as a visionary with a great interest in educational transformation and innovation in educational management. He dreamed of transforming the organizational structures prevailing in the educational system, which, as he used to say, coincided with teaching and management models in the industrial era. His vision was that schools as organizations need to develop learning-centered knowledge. He left a great legacy to those who believe that this dream is possible to benefit education in México. This book includes fourteen cases of successful principals, with a clear example that this dream can be a reality"--
