Distributive Leadership

Distributive leadership is used in capacity building at different times throughout the school year.  As the administration provides many professional development sessions for their teachers; they go ahead and have teachers who are experienced in the topics to be discussed to manage the professional development session.  When administration does this they are distributing leadership among teachers in the school.  This allows for teachers to be involved in leadership roles as well as with their peers.  At my school we also see capacity building when teachers have to be endorsed for certain core subjects,  The school then distributes leadership to teachers who have experience in these endorsements to then look over the fact that teachers are in compliance.  This allows administration some free time to attend to some issues that are of more importance and cannot be distributed to no one else.
