Developing Educational Leadership : Using

In this book, the editors have drawn together key figures in the field of Evidence-Informed Policy and Practice (EIPP) to introduce its role in informing educational leadership, with the aim of improving learning and teaching. The EIPP approach is considered, both for structuring research studies and for the analysis of the data generated. Relevant examples are also provided to inform the current debate. This book is important reading for educational professionals, policy makers, practitioners and students.
