Abstract

Children’s centres are an under-researched type of organisation, and leadership practices within children’s centres are yet more neglected and unknown. This action research reveals how leaders of these children’s centres understand and verbalise their leadership practices, which leadership practices are serving them well and can be levered for further good and which leadership practices are areas for development that need further improvement. The research also questions what constitutes ‘action’ within action research and the complications of analytical ‘mess’ in such endeavours.
