Under a programme of major reforms announced by education minister Peter Peacock on Monday (1 November), a new leadership academy for head teachers will be established by the Scottish Executive.
The Executive is also introducing a Schools of Ambition programme for schools most in need of improvement. And head teachers will have more control over their spending under plans to extend devolved management.
Scotland's schools inspectorate, HMIE, will publish a self-evaluation framework by next spring to help schools deliver integrated services.
