Описание: Looks at school leadership and reform in an alternative way, following the story of change at Washington School, a troubled grades 5-6 centre in a small town in Western Oklahoma. Not only does the book address a neglected population, it uses the occasion to invert thinking about school reform.
Описание: This book explains how school organization by age (grade) alone, sets schools on a factory course that is harmful and ultimately self-defeating to all involved and to ecology. It returns us to three systems thinking concepts; purpose, measures, and method.
Описание: Examines the major issues that must still be addressed if children are to be given more and better opportunities. This second edition will help everyone whose work impacts the ECE workforce to deepen their commitment to adaptive and systems work and to develop the leadership capacity needed to become change agents.
Описание: Schools define themselves by state metrics. But when we dig down into the numbers, questions remain: Do good schools get positive numbers despite good instruction, or because of it? Do lower performing schools get negative numbers because of subpar instruction, or something else? How does school leadership factor into these outcomes? Which characteristics of the building’s community determine a school’s success?Amy M. Dujon’s The Gritty Truth of School Transformation answers these questions and more by revealing how schools of all shapes, sizes, and socio-economic and academic backgrounds can achieve real faculty and student growth. How? By implementing rigorous instruction in the classroom and empowering school leaders to establish and grow a vision of excellence that involves both teachers and students.Additionally, district and school leaders can use this book to:Take any school to new levels of success within the new standardsOvercome the fact that new standards have made it more challenging to improve good schoolsGet actual results with the proper programs and toolsBuck the trend of high performing schools producing the lowest learning gainsEnsure that students in all schools are measurably benefitting from instruction
This is a devotional which is part Scripture study, part emotional dive, part intellectual interrogation, and part personal stirrings. It takes you on a school year journey that meets you where you are professionally. It equally challenges you through the Church Year, the way in which our spiritual life also has its exaltations and despairs. In this parallel journey, we hope that you will be inspired and challenged to continue to extend God's Kingdom through His children.
Greg, Simon, and Stephen are leaders with Christian School Management, present and former Heads of School, leaders with over 100 years of experience between them, and committed to extending the Kingdom. Our intention is to bring hope and inspire you.
Christian School Management was founded in 2017 to reverse the decline in Christian education. Its mission is For Jesus; Through Mission; With Students. It is a 501(c)3 operated by committed Christian school leaders providing advice and counsel through Empower, CSM's weekly newsletter, through consulting, workshops, surveys, Trustee online training, and other resources. It works across denominational boundaries to build God's kingdom "on earth as it is heaven".

Описание: Sustainable School Transformation: An Inside-Out School Led Approach explores how we can best build a truly world class education system. It presents a theoretical and practical case for an alternative approach that combines the rigour of traditional ‘top-down’ accountability models with the engagement and buy-in of school led ‘inside-out’ approaches – a combination which can be applied to any school in any context internationally. David Crossley and a range of practitioners and academics draw on their extensive experience of past approaches to school improvement in the UK and US. Rather than reject 'top-down' accountability models, they explore new ways of developing them alongside 'inside-out' school led approaches that really do motivate those in our schools who in the final analysis have to deliver the aspirations of politicians and our wider societies for all our young people. The book is based on the premise that Peter Drucker’s notion of addictive achievement, discussed in relation to students in Post Capitalist Society, applies to staff and schools too, and if we want to build a truly world class system it will only be achieved through the motivation and resultant efforts of all those in our schools.
Partnering with over twenty mindfulness resource organizations and written by over three dozen passionate school educators, this collaborative book utilizes inspiring storytelling to give a multi-perspective exploration of the emergence of mindfulness in US education while also creating a comprehensive resource and field guide for school communities. Together they make the case for mindfulness in schools and show us firsthand how establishing a foundation of mindfulness prioritizes well-being and supercharges all learning.
