ABSTRACT Since the 2000s there has been a growing global interest in policies that redefine, support, and monitor school leadership roles. Despite this, research knowledge on the international use of school leadership standards is limited, specifically on its relationship to various role demands (or imperatives) of school administration. Drawing from data from the International Project on Effective School Leadership Policies and Teaching and Learning International Survey, we performed a descriptive analysis of leadership standards through the lens of the four imperatives of school administration, i.e. managerial, instructional, moral, and socio-political. The findings indicate that the seemingly unified emerging global phenomenon of standards policy for school leaders is more diverse than frequently argued with the focus on various imperatives. At the same time they reveal a broad consensus among countries promoting standards on managerial aspects as well as isomorphism and detachment of policy from practice in several contexts. The study expands the knowledge base on the international adoption of the school leadership standards policy and its interrelations with the imperatives of school administration.

学校领导水平与学校行政命令之间的关系：国际视角

摘要自2000年代以来，全球对重新定义，支持和监督学校领导角色的政策的兴趣日益浓厚。尽管如此，有关国际使用学校领导标准的研究知识仍然有限，特别是与学校管理的各种角色要求（或要求）之间的关系。我们从有效的学校领导政策国际项目和教与学国际调查的国际项目中获得的数据，通过学校管理的四个必要要素，即管理，教学，道德和社会政治，对领导标准进行了描述性分析。调查结果表明，针对学校领导者的看似统一的新兴全球标准政策现象比经常争论的更加多样化，并着重于各种必要事项。同时，它们揭示了各国在促进管理方面的标准以及同构和政策脱离实践的国家之间的广泛共识。该研究扩大了国际上采用学校领导标准政策及其与学校管理的必要性之间的关系的知识基础。
