The materials in the distributed leadership pack represent a set of projects we have conducted to show what distributed leadership looks like, to help schools identify how they currently share leadership and to offer practical steps to develop this further.

The materials, which include thinkpieces, tools, audio recordings and CD-ROMs, contain:

Practical guidance to support middle leaders in both primary and secondary schools Leading researchers' perspectives on the benefits of sharing leadership and ideas about how to do this A set of tools to help schools evaluate and develop their own distributed leadership, which we have devised through school-based research.

These materials are launched in conjunction with this website, which offers short excerpts of these documents and interactive elements of the materials.

Through this website, you can also access talk2learn, where you can share questions and ideas with other practitioners in an online community dedicated to distributed leadership.
