description This paper examines some of the key aspects of successful leadership practices for schools in challenging urban context. The research question for this paper is: “What are the key aspects of successful leadership practices used by headteachers in schools in a highly disadvantaged urban context?” The study is based on a qualitative case study approach with a comparative perspective. In the study a purposeful sampling approach was adopted. In order to answer the research question multiple methods of data collection were used. The research findings show three following development phases common to the studied schools and successful leadership practices corresponding to those phases: (i) Creation of reliable foundations: toward new qualities; (ii) Building a culture of concern and achievement; and (iii) Searching for synergy: stabilization and consolidation. Teachers’ leadership and building the educational partnerships are especially important practices within the phase: “Searching for synergy: stabilization and consolidation”.

La pregunta de investigación para este artículo es: "¿Cuáles son los aspectos clave de las prácticas del liderazgo exitoso utilizadas por los directores de las escuelas en contextos urbanos altamente desfavorecidos?" El estudio se basa en un enfoque de estudio de caso cualitativo con una perspectiva comparada. Se utilizó muestreo intencional. Para responder a la pregunta de investigación se utilizaron diferentes métodos de recogida de información. Los resultados de la investigación muestran tres fases comunes en el desarrollo de las escuelas estudiadas y explicitan prácticas de liderazgo exitoso en cada una de las fases. Éstas son: (i) Creación de bases: hacia nuevas cualidades; (ii) Construcción de una cultura preocupada por el rendimiento; y (iii) Búsqueda de sinergias: estabilización y consolidación. El liderazgo docente y la construcción de las asociaciones educativas son prácticas especialmente importantes dentro de la fase: "Búsqueda de sinergias: estabilización y consolidación".Este artigo analisa alguns dos aspectos-chave de práticas de liderança de sucesso implementados nas escolas em contextos urbanos desafiadores.
