Abstract

We are accustomed to thinking of the many changes which are needed in the schools for today and tomorrow. Changes in technology, in organisation, in community links, in teaching and assessment: all are under way. There can be no doubt about the need for such changes as social upheaval and technological innovation bring a revolution to our lives, a revolution which no one has planned or intended. Yet the most crucial response to change will be personal in character; the nature of the way people relate to each other in the organisation of schools and particularly the nature of the way that leadership is prepared for, exercised and improved. The paper makes a case for the "professionalism of leadership" in such circumstances and explores the implications.

摘要

我們的學校已習慣了面對種種轉變；科技、組織、社區連繫、教學與評鑑，全部在變。社會變遷、科技創新，帶來了一場沒人計劃的自發革命，使我們無法不應變。但是變革的關鍵卻是個人性的，如何變繫於學校內的人事合作，特別是如何培訓、執行及改善學校領導。本文提議學校應邁向「領導專業主義」以適應新時代及討論這種轉變會帶來甚麼影響。
