It reflects the fact that much of what we know about effective, high-quality schools is already out there in schools across the country. The book mines that gold. It is full of good sense, a treasure chest of helpful ideas which have the credibility of being grounded in case-study material, and in the experience of the authors, two of whom are practising headteachers.

It sets out practical and specific steps to creating the Learning School and will support change and improvement in the professional practices involved in making a school a stimulating learning environment for adults as well as students - Dr Martin J. Coles, Assistant Director, National College for School Leadership This book gives a complete overview of how schools can adapt to meet changing needs.
