This book demonstrates that present school structures and processes need to be redesigned, and suggests ways of reforming schools to enhance student outcomes. The author suggests that a holistic approach that integrates all facets of school life - learning, teaching, curriculum, school structures, resources, leadership and management - is needed. A practical and coherent model is used, underpinned by research evidence of what works and how practitionersEducational changeSchool improvement programs - Cross-cultural studiesSchool management and organizationSchool improvement programsCross-cultural studiesEducational changeCross-cultural studiesSchool management and organizationCross-cultural studiesEducationHILCCSocial SciencesHILCCTheory & Practice of EducationHILCCEducational change.School improvement programs - Cross-cultural studies.School management and organization.School improvement programsEducational changeSchool management and organizationEducationSocial SciencesTheory & Practice of Education371.2Dimmock Clive A.
