School Effectiveness, School Improvement

By Nigel D. Bennett

The pressure on schools to improve and to raise achievement continues to be a dominant issue in both school and government policies. School Effectiveness and School Improvement seeks to develop the debate further, providing academics and practitioners alike with

- a summary and discussion of research on school effectiveness and school improvement up to the present;

- new perspectives on these fields, developed from other traditions of thinking and research;

- a consideration of the role of organization theory;

- an integrated view of these current perspectives; and

- clear, practical implications for policy and practice.
