这本书运用实践理论来考察“中层领导”的作用。特别是，它调查了“中间领导”在文化话语、物质经济和社会政治领域的实践，即中间领导的言论、行为和关系。这一视角承认了学校主要实践的生态安排，以及考虑场地不可避免的现实的必要性。该分析被用来宣传将中间领导视为一种实践形式的必要性——一种在道德和伦理上知情的实践，需要在结果并不总是明确的情况下进行深思熟虑的决策和行动。这本书的重点是那些在中小学“中层管理”职位的领导实践，如那些负责课程领导的人，包括高级教师、副校长和课程负责人。在“管理”和“课堂”之间的桥梁上，他们是促进和维持有效教学法以获得良好学习成果的重要领导者，他们必须继续在自己的课堂上提供高质量的教学，同时成为同事的导师、教练、支持者和评估者。
This book uses practice theory to examine the role of ‘middle-leadership’. In particular, it investigates the practices of ‘leading in the middle’ in the cultural-discursive, material-economic, and social-political domains – i.e., the sayings, doings and relatings of middle leading. This perspective acknowledges the ecological arrangement of leading practices in schools, and the necessity of considering the unavoidable reality of the site. The analysis is used to promote the need to view leading in the middle as a form of praxis – a morally and ethically informed practice that requires thoughtful decision-making and action in situations where the outcomes are not always clear. This book focuses on the practice of leading for those in ‘middle management’ positions in primary and secondary schools, such as those responsible for curriculum leadership, including senior teachers, assistant principals, and curriculum leaders. In their positions that bridge ‘management’ and ‘the classroom’ they are significant leaders in promoting and sustaining effective pedagogy for good learning outcomes, and they have to continue to provide high-quality teaching in their own classrooms, while simultaneously being a mentor, coach, supporter and evaluator for their colleagues.
