This document explores the evolution of educational leadership within New Zealand's Networked Learning Communities (NLCs). It highlights key findings on how NLCs have transitioned from interpreting the New Zealand Curriculum to developing school curricula. Three leadership patterns—principal-centered, shared, and team leadership—are identified. The report emphasizes the importance of aligning curriculum, teacher, and leadership development processes, alongside fostering a pedagogical shift. It also discusses the role of leadership in driving second-order change and the potential for adult learning across school boundaries.
