Event

The School of Education invites you to a Public Lecture on Social Justice Leadership: Evidence from practice delivered by Professor Paul Miller. This lecture will be held virtually on Thursday, April 13 from 1 - 2 p.m.

At a minimum, social justice is about fairness. Social Justice Leadership, therefore, is concerned with leaders delivering and insisting upon fairness to all members of their school community through systems, policies and processes.  The end result of this will likely be a greater sense of belonging and engagement among members. This seminar will present evidence of school leaders in multiple settings doing social justice work. Miller et al (2019) Triple Activism model is used to examine and make sense of the actions of school leaders.
