One day with a busy headteacher tells you a lot about their leadership. Kenny Frederick is a powerful woman who leads George Green's secondary school in London's East End. Her leadership style includes building social capital by spotting talent amongst her support staff and pre-empting trouble by employing local people to mediate conflicts before they develop. 'All different - all equal' is the slogan on the walls at George Green's School and Kenny does her best to put this into practice amongst 1200 pupils and 200 staff. This vision informs most of the activity in her busy, much-visited office during the course of one ordinary day. But when two boys trash the showers used by disabled students, how does she handle it and make the punishment fit the crime?
