School leaders continue to develop their practices through educational leadership and professional learning in schools as organizations. This proposed paper explores texts (N=35) on development projects written by school leaders in the final stage of their work in the Swedish National School Leaders’ Training Programme. Preliminary results of the text analysis show that school leaders have chosen to study own leadership in areas such as support for students with special needs, projects and activities to promote teachers’ professional development, policy documentation and analysis, and digitalization. These results paint a picture of prevailing issues for school leaders at present. These insights may be of importance when striving to create a stronger link between practice and research in training and professional development for school leaders in the future.
