Talk:Superhead

superheads are specialist headteachers (informal, UK, education)

superheads are a subset of head teacher, head master, Executive head teacher, and High master (academic), "super head teachers"

"A specialist headteacher sent, by government or other authority, to reorganise and improve a school that is perceived to be failing."

They have been appointed since Tony Blair and Michael Gove to solve problems at UK educational institutions

They have sometimes abused their enhanced powers thus becoming newsworthy

Their jurisdiction could be only one school or an educational trust with more than one school.

They are like a US Superintendent (education) like Superintendent of the Los Angeles Unified School District or California State Superintendent of Public Instruction
