DEFINITION
System leaders care about and work for the
success of other schools as well as their own. They
measure their success in terms of improving
student learning and increasing achievement, and
strive to both raise the bar and narrow the gap(s).
Crucially they are willing to shoulder system
leadership roles in the belief that in order to
change the larger system you have to engage
with it in a meaningful way. (David Hopkins, 2007)
