About the Book

Can a fundamental reform in the organization of a school lead to school improvement? Reform programmes that have proved to be a success in one school, when adopted by other schools, are often unsuccessful. This book looks at why it is that change does not occur on a large-scale basis. The authors show how the theory can be applied in practice to get around issues that are preventing change and improvement. They look at: why and how schools are adopting reforms; the problem of context and the politics of race, class and gender; changing teachers work through external reform designs; implementation, sustainability and expiration of reform models; measuring reform success; and working together for school change.

Table of Contents:
Chapter 1 Introduction; Chapter 2 How Does Reform Adoption Happen? The Role of Power, Politics, and Perspective; Chapter 3 Is all Change Local? How Context Shapes Implementation; Chapter 4 Change Agents in the School Reform Process; Chapter 5 Building the Plane While it’s Flying; Chapter 6 The Life of External Reform Models; Chapter 7 Prospects for Educational Change;

Review :
'The book will be recommended for my students as an essential read. Large-scale reform is taking off and there are so few books on the topic.' - Professor Michael Fullan; 'This is currently a very important area of focus for school reform and I believe that the proposed book would provide a timely overview.' - Professor David Hopkins
