Synopsis :

Activist Leadership for Inclusive Schools explores courageous methods for educational leadership and principalship in Canada to move beyond additive discourses of diversity to dismantling systems of oppression for thriving schools and communities. It is a timely collection rooted in diverse approaches to activism that names, disrupts, and challenges dominant leadership discourses and practices that perpetuate harm to underserved communities.

Throughout Canada, educational policies and mandates are often implemented without meaningful collaboration with the students, families, and communities they are intended to serve, thereby exacerbating systemic, structural, and institutional barriers. The collection's social justice approach to activism and leadership bridges gaps between policies, institutions, and communities. It calls for a more just education system that carves out spaces of belonging by honouring the lived experiences, identities, and intersectionalities of all students.

This book is an invaluable resource for Canadian university education programs with courses focusing on educational leadership, diversity, social justice, or inclusive education. It also serves educational administration, existing teachers, principals, higher education instructors and researchers, policy makers, and activists.
