CIES-Launch of the 2024/5 Concept Note on leadership and education
This session will launch the concept note for the 2024 Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report on the theme of school and education leadership. As the main resource for decision makers who seek comparative research and knowledge to inform their actions on inclusive and equitable quality education at national, regional and global levels, the 2024 GEM Report will draw on the most recent evidence to critically examine the theme of school and education leadership aiming to explore what skill set is required for an effective school leader and the evidence on the effect of good school leaders on learning.
The discussion will feature a short overview of the rationale and framework for the 2024 GEM Report from the GEM Report’s Director Manos Antoninis, before giving the floor to two school and education leadership specialists to share brief insights from their unique viewpoints on what constitutes effective school and education leadership, and why effective school leadership is increasingly viewed as key to large-scale education reform and to improved educational outcomes.
