It draws extensively on original empirical research that explores school leaders’ perceptions of how leadership and management training impacted their professional practices, and how these practices in turn impacted the dynamics of school operations. This book addresses a critical need to understand how to support leadership development for all Pacific schools, but especially in schools that are faced with the increasing challenges of learning and teaching conditions. In small island developing states in the Pacific region, school leaders face a myriad of challenges due to limited human and material resources, and a fragile economic base. Written by Pacific Islander authors, this book provides insights from different countries in the Pacific Islands. It shows how contextual challenges can exert enormous pressure on school leaders who are leading and managing schools without any leadership preparation. Given the importance of effective leadership practices and its impact on student learning outcomes, this book aims to be a source of reference for practitioners and educational authorities who have a vested interest in the provision of quality education in the Pacific region and beyond. 001476535 650_0 $$aEducational leadership$$zPacific Area. 001476535 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001476535 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9819949882$$z9789819949885$$w(OCoLC)1387008135 001476535 852__ $$bebk 001476535 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-99-4989-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001476535 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1476535$$pGLOBAL_SET 001476535 980__ $$aBIB 001476535 980__ $$aEBOOK 001476535 982__ $$aEbook 001476535 983__ $$aOnline 001476535 994__ $$a92$$bISE
