Grant, Rosemary

Gender and Education, v1 n2 p113-25 1989

Examines the career attitudes and experiences of women deputy headpersons in an English local educational authority (LEA). Through interviews with 38 women administrators, the study explores their conception of career and finds no match with that of "career ambitious" teachers, but rather a diversity of career tracks and perceptions.
