Distributed leadership in schools involves sharing leadership responsibilities among multiple individuals, including teachers and other staff, rather than solely relying on the principal. This approach aims to leverage the expertise and skills of various members of the school community to improve outcomes for students and the entire school.
"The leadership team at Caversham Valley Primary School, led by the Principal, is strong and cohesive. Collaboratively, they lead a culture of high expectations through distributed leadership, clarity of vision and provision of whole-school structures and processes. An authentic drive through the school's improvement agenda is focused on maximising outcomes for students." (CVPS PSR Review Report 2025)
