New Labour and School Leadership 1997-2007
Gunter, Helen; Forrester, Gillian
British Journal of Educational Studies, v56 n2 p144-162 Jun 2008
We draw on empirical data and theorising that focuses on the relationship between the state, public policy and knowledge in the construction and configuration of school leadership under New Labour from 1997. Specifically we show how a school leadership policy network comprises people in different locations who operate as policy entrepreneurs in shaping policy.
