"Schools and school leadership are about establishing a set of values within which young people learn, where they learn to become productive and mature members of their community and of society at large. School leadership therefore has an enormous responsibility to make a difference to the world in which we live. This is the challenge and this is the privilege." - Adrian Percival and Susan Tranter, from Chapter 1
