Career Trajectories of Deputy and Assistant Headteachers and Their Perceptions of Secondary Headship CAREER TRAJECTORIES OF DEPUTY AND ASSISTANT HEADTEACHERS AND THEIR PERCEPTIONS OF SECONDARY HEADSHIP BY JUDITH BRUCE-GOLDING A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF EDUCATION AND LEADERSHIP School of Education University of Birmingham Edgbaston Birmingham B15 2TT March 2018 i University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract There is a dearth of literature about the career life courses and voices of Deputy and Assistant Headteachers in secondary schools. This thesis examines the career tra- jectories and the experiences of Headship from 14 Deputy and Assistant Headteachers in secondary schools in Birmingham, England. A two-phase, mixed- method study (survey and semi-structured life history interviews) was employed as part of an explanatory sequential design. This research builds upon previous work in life history studies along with career phases and stages research. The findings from this study add new insights to the senior leadership role and the perception of Headship in that the Deputy and Assistant Headteacher career stage and socialization experiences can determine whether they stay, leave or climb the career ladder to Headship. This thesis tentatively suggests that Deputy and Assis- tant Headteachers lean towards displaying mainly Bonder, Bridger or Leaver char- acteristics that contribute to aspiration and how they utilize their social capital in their career journeys. A new career stages and phases framework pertaining to Deputy and Assistant Headship in secondary schools has been forwarded which draws on the distinction between bonding and bridging social capital and career transition in school leader- ship and management. ii This thesis is dedicated to: My parents Austin and Vashti; who have taught me about the value of education and perseverance during challenge through their life histories and their inimitable approach to life, and Robert: for being my rock and wonderful support. Life history exploration is a powerful way of walking with and understanding the indi- vidual’s unique life pathway which informs and guides their values, morals, deci- sions, attitudes towards justice and personal agency. iii Acknowledgements My Supervisors Dr. Thomas Bischoff, Dr. Christopher Rhodes and Professor Peter Da- vies: for their continued support, sharing of knowledge and invaluable assis- tance. I would like to extend a very special thank you to Professor Julie Allan for having an open door and providing the encouragement, guidance and sup- port when I most needed it. My family and friends Thank you to my family and friends, in particular to Angela, Deborah, Ray, Antonio and Audrey, who have been voices of continued positivity and en- couragement for me to strive towards my goals. The 14 Senior Leaders Thank you to the Deputy and Assistant Headteachers who shared their life and career histories with me as part of this important research. iv Abbreviations AH – Assistant Headteacher BAME – Black and Minority Ethnic DfE - Department for Education DfES - Department for Education and Schools DH – Deputy Headteacher NAHT – National Association for Headteachers NASUWT – National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers NCTL – National College of Teaching & Leadership NPQH – National Professional Qualification for Headship NPQSL – National Professional Qualification for Senior Leaders NPQML – National Professional Qualification for Middle Leaders NUT – National Union of Teachers OECD - The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development OFSTED – Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills v Table of Contents CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION .................................................................... 12 1.1 Theoretical framework and model ........................................................ 16 1.2 Career journey frameworks of school leaders ...................................... 18 1.3 Research Design .................................................................................... 21 1.4 Wider framework .................................................................................... 22 1.5 Structure of this thesis ........................................................................... 23 2.1 The changing responsibilities of school leaders ................................ 28 2.1.1 Accountability and Autonomy ............................................................ 30 2.1.2 Changing leadership structure .......................................................... 34 2.1.3 Social Capital .................................................................................... 36 2.1.4 Relationship bonder and builder ........................................................ 39 2.1.5 Personal attributes ............................................................................ 41 2.1.6 A changing focus of leadership in schools: from transactional to transformational leadership?

  • Austin's Progressive Country Music Scene and the Negotiation
    Space, Place, and Protest: Austin’s Progressive Country Music Scene and the Negotiation of Texan Identities, 1968-1978 Travis David Stimeling A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Jocelyn R. Neal, Chair Jon W. Finson David García Mark Katz Philip Vandermeer © 2007 Travis David Stimeling ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT TRAVIS DAVID STIMELING: “Space, Place, and Protest: Austin’s Progressive Country Music Scene and the Negotiation of Texan Identities, 1968-1978” (Under the direction of Jocelyn R. Neal) The progressive country music movement developed in Austin, Texas, during the early 1970s as a community of liberal young musicians and concertgoers with strong interests in Texan country music traditions and contemporary rock music converged on the city. Children of the Cold War and the post-World War II migration to the suburbs, these “cosmic cowboys” sought to get back in touch with their rural roots and to leave behind the socially conservative world their parents had created for them. As a hybrid of country music and rock, progressive country music both encapsulated the contradictions of the cosmic cowboys in song and helped to create a musical sanctuary in which these youths could articulate their difference from mainstream Texan culture. Examining the work of the movement’s singer-songwriters (Michael Murphey, Guy Clark, Gary P. Nunn), western swing revivalists (Asleep at the Wheel, Alvin Crow and the Pleasant Valley Boys), and commercial country singers (Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings), this dissertation explores the proliferation of stock imagery, landscape painting, and Texan stereotypes in progressive country music and their role in the construction of Austin’s difference.

  • Willie Hugh Nelson Est Né Le 29 Avril 1933 À Abbott, Périphérie De Fort Worth (Texas), Pendant La Grande Dépression
    Willie Hugh Nelson est né le 29 avril 1933 à Abbott, périphérie de Fort Worth (Texas), pendant la Grande Dépression. Il sera élevé par ses Grands Parents (ses parents, sa mère Myrle Marie (née Greenhaw et son père Ira Doyle Nelson divorcent alors que Willie n’a que 6 mois). Son grand-père forgeron décèdera lorsque Willie à 6 ans. En dehors de l’école il va travailler dans les champs de coton ou de maïs pour s’acheter des fournitures scolaires. Sa Grand-mère, cantinière, gagne 18 $ par jour et s’occupe de sa famille. Autour de sa 5ème année Willie apprend la musique sur une guitare ’’ Harmony ‘’ que lui achète son grand père, à partir d’un catalogue de vente par correspondance ‘’ Sears and Roebuck ‘’. Sa grand-mère commence à lui montrer quelques accords ; sa sœur Bobbie, aînée de 2 ans, joue du piano. A 7 ans Willie écrit sa première chanson et à 9 ans il chante dans un groupe local, les ‘’Bohemian Polka’’. Après ses études secondaires Willie occupe plusieurs emplois : vendeur d’encyclopédies en faisant du porte-à-porte, puis représentant de machines à coudre Singer. Willie commence à jouer dans des orchestres puis intègre l'US Air Force en 1950. En 1956 Il reprend quelques études à l'université Baylor de Waco, mais abandonne rapidement celles-ci et une future carrière d’agriculteur pour devenir musicien et disc jockey et se destiner à la Country Music. S'installant à Vancouver, dans l'état de Washington, le jeune homme débute dans les clubs, tentant d'imposer son style folk sudiste traditionnel face à un public globalement indifférent à ce genre.

  • Destination Anywhere an Insider’S Tour of Hometown Music Scenes, Past and Present

Austin tLive Musicex Capital Aof the sWorLd deStination anywheRe auStin, texaS continued it’s A Lot to Live up to, that Texas-sized boast about being the “Live Music Capital of the world.” Austin adopted it as their official slogan in 1991, with no voting or formal competition for the title involved, of course, apart from the city council members who did have the modesty to rule out the slightly more inflated “Live Music Capital of the Universe.” As such, it’s a claim to fame as open for debate as any truck stop’s self-proclaimed “world’s Best Coffee” or w“ orld Famous Chicken-Fried Steak.” The appropriate response to any such pronouncements should always be a certain degree of skepticism: “Prove it.” The key word in this case is “live.” For district. And when visitors arrive at Austin- the better part of the last 40 years, the best Bergstrom International Airport, they’re in Texas—and a good many notables from immediately greeted by Texas music, be it beyond—have all found themselves drawn piped through the terminal sound system or to the center of the state and used the capital live onstage, right in the concourse, as part city’s many stages to launch, or even re-launch, of the “Music in the Air” concert series. their music careers. Austin is where Abbott, does all of that merit the “Live Music Texas native willie Nelson reinvented himself Capital of the world” title? Clearly, it as an “outlaw,” spearheading the progressive doesn’t hurt.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

I'd been rooting around the History Department where, at age forty-one and only twenty years behind schedule, I'd finished my undergraduate degree. I had the academic bug and I wanted to move on to graduate school. Professor David Montejano was kind enough to let me sit in on one of his graduate courses to allow me to get a feel for what graduate work involved. As the seminar wound down, he suggested that I check out the AMS program on the third floor of Garrison Hall. I looked through the courses the department had been offering over the last few semesters and after noticing subjects like film history, jazz, a large collection of topics in popular culture, and seminars dealing with drugs, alcohol, and the beat generation, I knew I'd found a new home.
