Leadership Transition in International Schools Survey

Research Collaboration Project by RSAcademics and MSB

MSB and RSAcademics are collaborating on a research project exploring leadership transition in international schools. The aim of the study is to develop a clearer understanding of how leadership transitions are experienced across the sector and what practices appear to support stability and successful leadership over time.

For the purposes of this research, leadership transition refers to changes within a school’s senior leadership team, including both educational and operational roles such as Head or Principal, Deputy or Assistant Head or Vice Principal and senior operational leaders such as COO, CFO or Bursar.

Transitions may include external appointments, internal promotions or leadership departures.

The results of this survey will be posted shortly.
