Scope: While legal framework development and efficient government structures are critical for achieving equitable education, leadership at the school level is also vital. This session discusses school leaders with visions for improving quality and learning outcomes, especially for disadvantaged children. These leaders must also effectively manage ongoing tasks and create inclusive and equitable learning environments. Three cases will show how properly-functioning school-based management helps to set school directions for students, teacher development, and allocation of materials and financial resources, which eventually impact students’ and teachers’ motivation, commitment and success. This session is intended for school principals, head teachers, teachers and those who work closely with them
