Published to coincide with the launch of the National College for School Leadership (NCSL), this work challenges the notion that there is one right way to approach school leadership. Presenting the key policies and approaches to organization and management of 14 successful school leaders from the UK and internationally, the book seeks to reflect the diversity of approaches that are possible in given situations, and to act as a guide for anyone facing the challenges of leadership in education today. It has a focus on generic and transferable factors.

In 1997 a conference on medieval art and architecture of the city of Glasgow and its environs, was held in the city itself.
