Resumen

Cincuenta años de teoría e investigación ofrecen evidencias claras a la afirmación de que el liderazgo desarrollado por el director marca una diferencia en la calidad de la educación, el desarrollo de la escuela y el aprendizaje del estudiante. En el actual contexto de reforma de la educación global, sin embargo, las investigaciones recientes se han centrado en la identificación de cómo los equipos de los líderes escolares contribuyen a la mejora de la escuela y el aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Este documento presenta conclusiones extraídas de una serie de análisis empíricos que evalúan los efectos de liderazgo colaborativo sobre la capacidad de mejora de la escuela y el aprendizaje de los estudiantes en una amplia muestra de las escuelas de educación primaria de Estados Unidos durante un período de cuatro años. Nuestros resultados apoyan la idea predominante de que el liderazgo escolar colaborativo puede repercutir positivamente en el aprendizaje de los estudiantes en las áreas de lectura y matemáticas, mejorando la capacidad de la escuela y por ende el aumento del rendimiento académico. La investigación amplia este hallazgo, sin embargo, ofreciendo datos de investigaciones empíricas que apoyan un liderazgo más complejo, el cual es una pieza clave en el aprendizaje del alumno, siendo un proceso de influencia mutua. Desde esta perspectiva, tanto estudiantes como equipo directivo forman parte de una dirección colectiva de la escuela esencial para la mejora educativa.
