Teachers' Education Review 
Thank you , i look forward to your analysis of Leadership in Education. An aspect i’m interested in is the seeming disconnect between the motivations of Principles & Leaders, versus those of students, parents and teachers.Will you delve into any of these areas? I was reading a book – WHAT *SHOULD* WE BE WORRIED ABOUT? a series of short essays by more than 100 prominent people. Many essays were about things you’d expect – war, climate, disease. But i stumbled on Sam Harris’s – “The Power Of Bad Incentives.” This seemed to give some glimpse into the motivation problem. Harris concludes – “We need systems that are wiser than we are. We need institutions and cultural norms that make us better than we tend to be. It seems to me that the greatest challenge we now face is to build them.” Full essay here – https://www.edge.org/response-detail/23781
Thanks for your comment George. I had a look at that essay and it is really interesting when thinking about challenges facing schools and the ways the ‘connect’ with the needs of young people and communities in our modern times. I hope that you find our future episodes which will include interviews with a variety of people, interesting around this topic. Keep in touch! (Twitter – @LongmuirFiona)
