Abstract

The Scottish Qualification for Headship (SQH) has been designed for delivery through a partnership of higher education institutions (HEIs) and local authorities (LAs). The study reported in this article aimed to give an account of the processes of management of SQH at LA level. This article highlights the liaison and support role played by those who coordinated SQH within local authorities. Conclusions are drawn about the complexities of the coordination role and the centrality of adequate resourcing for the success of the programme that has a substantial workbased learning element. Implications are identified for future continuing professional development (CPD) strategies
