This study explores the rationale of teacher leaders in elementary and secondary schools, as well as its implication for school education in Taiwan. First, the researcher delineates the basic concepts of teacher leaders, including who teacher leaders are, and what skills and qualities teacher leaders require. In addition, this research explores how to develop teacher leaders, including the models and the programs for developing teacher leaders. After a critical review of the literature on teacher leaders, five kinds of teacher leaders development programs are found, including NBPTS certificates, PDS, programs based in schools or school districts, university-based degree programs, and programs that are small-group based. Second, this research discusses the implementation of the idea of teacher leaders in Taiwan. Finally, based on the discussion above, eight implications are proposed for school education in Taiwan.
