This edited collection focuses on the theme of ‘leadership’ in Catholic education settings. It addresses a number of broader issues about leadership matters in Catholic education, which include an overview of the importance of ‘servant-leadership’ in understanding and framing Catholic school leadership, a critical survey of why leadership in Catholic schools matter to ensuring what typically counts as the success of Catholic education, what counts as the defining characteristics of leadership in Catholic education, and how this relates to the aims or philosophy of Catholic education. The chapters in this book draw from the insights and experiences of serving catholic school leaders, and from academics and researchers in Catholic education studies. Each chapter recognises and explores the importance of leadership in driving forward the improvement and effectiveness of Catholic schools and places of learning, with the shared recognition that there is an urgent need to find, nurture and sustain outstanding leaders for Catholic schools and colleges. .
