Abstract: Running an education organisation in the twenty-first century is one of the difficult tasks. This is because the education system is volatile (Kaume-Mwinzi, 2016), fluid as well as convoluted (Reyes, 2015). In addition, it exists in complex and competitive twenty-first century settings (Baltaci & Balci, 2017). As such this paper explores complexity leadership in relation to the inconsistencies that occur in the school inspectorate system in Malawi. Specifically, the emerging disconnects between deep-rooted practices and newly-introduced standards. To achieve this purpose, the papers uses theories of educational leadership to describe complex leadership, outline issues in the school inspectorate system, discusses options and possible implications, and explains as well as justify choice for solutions.
