What's my job? When leadership is effectively distributed on a school campus teacher's jobs are defined a bit clearer. Another way to clearly define teacher's job is with delegation of responsibilities. Both of these methods are effective in establishing expectations for teachers, but which is more effective at establishing excellence in a school?
At my school site, it seem like more of a delegation than distribution
Principal-->Vice Principal-->Department Chair/Director-->PLCs-->Individual Teacher
Individual teachers have some autonomy within the classroom but beyond that, we seem to be given jobs to do - not problems to solve. Maybe it is because our campus is problem free (tongue firmly planted in cheek). Most leadership teachers have is self imposed because the teacher sees an issue and addresses it - not because it has been distributed to them.
Just an observation.
