Executive headship: implications for the pay and conditions of all members of the leadership group in maintained schools

It’s of concern, particularly in relation to deputy and assistant heads working within federations, that members may be taking on duties and accountabilities that are outside of their statutory professional responsibilities and not being appropriately recognised for it in their levels of pay.
