Abstract

This paper describes the origins and evolution of a framework for leadership and management development in Scottish schools. In arriving at the current model the authors have been working with competence frameworks for 4 years. The design of the latest framework is underpinned by a model for professional action which should support experiential learning and critical reflection. The paper argues for the synthesis of a number of approaches to management development on the basis of a holistic model of practice.
