Ethical considerations;
As Lambe and Bones note in their study, informed consent is a requirement of any such research proposal, indeed further to this Burton and Bartlett consider the value of being able to discuss ‘final story’ (pp.175) with the teacher in question, or as otherwise described at a ‘debrief’. This discussion time is of particular importance due to the nature of the methods. Indeed as Stutchbury, K, & Fox, A, (2009) consider, with any interaction with others, there will be an element of ethics to consider. They also note that less consideration, from an ethical viewpoint has also considered the role of education in this field.

Indeed one of the difficulties in assessing the current framework of research is the distinctive or specific areas with which they focus, giving a somewhat skewed view of self. The researchers often focus on either ‘leadership’ or ‘followership’ few consider the more complex nature of this intertwined within the school setting. Rarely can these concepts truly be separated and the ‘drama’ that Starratt describes often becomes the most interesting element, but is lacking in substance. By using research narratives, the researcher hopes to gather a much broader sense of the leadership and followership within the school setting as well as develop the skills to evaluate his own practice in greater detail. All the while, these considerations are taken in light of the Seedman’s Ethical grid, which Stutchbury, K, & Fox, A, (2009) consider at some length in their …show more content…
Further research has also focused on Science or Maths, rather than the leadership of these subjects, less so the leadership of these subjects in the special context.
Likewise the relationship between leadership and followership oft appears to be one of a complex nature (Burton and Bartlett, 2005). This complexity is only furthered by the context of the special school. Indeed, Scott and McNeish suggest that further research is needed in the special context, other contributors agree mainly on the types of leader and concur less on the impact the leadership has on student progress, indeed; Leadership has ‘everything to do with performance in the classroom’ p.162 (Leithwood, 2004) more recently this shift if occurring in research, it is hoped that this case study approach will allow for insight and exploration into an area rich in general understanding yet poor in specific
