The book chapter stems from two funded research projects, ‘Doing things right way: Dimensions of excellence in Indigenous education in Queensland secondary schools’ and ‘Indigenous education excellence in flexi schools’. This chapter focuses specifically on the role of leadership in the pursuit of Indigenous excellence in educational settings. Focusing on data from three sites from our data set, one urban, one regional, and one remote school setting, we present a comparative analysis of leadership principles and practices across these three school settings. Central to this research is an examination of perspectives, understandings, aspirations, and experiences of Indigenous and non-Indigenous educators and leaders to make visible what they see as excellence in Indigenous education and to begin to conceptualise and theorise a practice and policy framework that reflects these aspirations. The questions framing the study are: How is excellence in Indigenous Education defined by Indigenous community, educators, school leaders? How do Indigenous and Non-Indigenous school leaders/teachers conceptualise a practice framework of excellence in Indigenous education? What are some examples educators and leaders identify as Excellence in Indigenous Education in their Queensland Secondary Schools?A vast body of literature emphasises the role school leaders play in positively impacting student outcomes and overall academic achievement (Anderson, 2010; Day, Gu, & Sammons, 2016; Leithwood et al., 2020).Some of the key leadership principles include: building relationships and partnership with their local Indigenous communities; and valuing Indigenous knowledge and cultural beliefs and practices that are integral towards promoting positive cultural identity and social and emotional wellbeing for Indigenous Australians.One of the key findings of the research confirms that achieving Indigenous educational excellence in Australian schools will require a focus on achievement through learning growth for all students, complemented by policies which support an adaptive, innovative, and continuously improving education system. The notion of leadership appeared to be taken for granted in the Indigenous participant cohort. Another finding highlighted the over-reliance on Indigenous staff to implement what they considered good practices in Indigenous education. The participants overall (Indigenous and non-Indigenous) required clarification of what the topic was many times during the research process. It was clear in the data that exploring Indigenous education through a lens of excellence was a foreign notion; our analysis suggests that this is due to the prevailing deficit discourses that exist in policy, scholarship, and practice.
这本书的章节源于两个资助的研究项目，“以正确的方式做事:昆士兰中学土著教育卓越的维度”和“灵活学校的土著教育卓越”。本章特别侧重于在教育环境中追求土著卓越的领导作用。我们的数据集中了三个地点的数据，一个是城市，一个是地区，一个是偏远地区的学校，我们对这三个学校的领导原则和实践进行了比较分析。本研究的核心是考察土著和非土著教育工作者和领导人的观点、理解、愿望和经验，使他们看到土著教育的卓越之处，并开始将反映这些愿望的实践和政策框架概念化和理论化。研究的框架问题是:土著社区、教育工作者、学校领导如何定义优秀的土著教育?土著和非土著学校领导/教师如何构想土著教育的卓越实践框架?教育家和领导人认为昆士兰中学的土著教育优秀的例子是什么?大量文献强调学校领导在积极影响学生成绩和整体学业成绩方面所起的作用(Anderson, 2010;Day, Gu， & Sammons, 2016;Leithwood et al.， 2020)。一些关键的领导原则包括:与当地土著社区建立关系和伙伴关系;重视土著知识、文化信仰和实践，这些都是促进土著澳大利亚人积极的文化认同和社会和情感健康所不可或缺的。该研究的一项重要发现证实，在澳大利亚学校中实现卓越的土著教育将需要关注所有学生通过学习成长取得的成就，并辅以支持适应性、创新性和不断改进的教育系统的政策。在土著参与者群体中，领导的概念似乎被视为理所当然。另一项调查结果强调了过度依赖土著工作人员来执行他们认为土著教育中的良好做法。在研究过程中，所有参与者(土著和非土著)都多次要求澄清主题是什么。数据清楚地表明，从卓越的角度探索土著教育是一种外国观念;我们的分析表明，这是由于政策、学术和实践中普遍存在的赤字话语。
