  237. long-term improvement from the elixirs, short-term opportunism and/or unrealistic expectations?
  238. The current and growing emphasis on evidence informed policy and practice is as good a place as
  239. any. The purpose of this article is to take up the issues of the complexity and predictive validity of
  240. evidence, that is, the need for evidence to be complex enough to come close to the reality faced by
  241. schools and evidence that seeks to link leadership and student outcomes. Arising from detailed
  242. qualitative and quantitative research, two models are presented for consideration that, it is argued,
  243. better reflect this complexity and predictive validity than previous work in the field.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available online at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/titles/13632434.asp</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/330104.html">330000 Education &gt; 330100 Education Studies &gt; 330104 Educational Policy, Administration and Management</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">1664</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Mrs Anita Cubit</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">24 Aug 2007</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=1664;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&amp;eprintid=1664">item control page</a></p>
