- Abstract
This qualitative inquiry compares the practice of one Māori primary school leader of urban education for Indigenous multicultural multilingual learners in New Zealand (NZ), to research on the practices of nine educational leaders of colour in the United States (US). This study identifies and compares leadership practices for leaders who work toward positively impacting learner outcomes in similar settings (e.g., UK, Canada). From a critical comparative perspective, this Māori school principal shares her leadership practice and lessons learned to inform leadership practice in similarly multifaceted urban settings. This research is undertaken by a collaborative cross-cultural team of educational leaders and scholars from the US and NZ, from the local university and urban primary school. The research team comprises multiple perspectives, the basis for global comparative discourse on school leadership. This contribution offers a crosscultural model, framework, and way of doing educational research to increase understanding of leadership in different societies.
