Failure-Free Education? : The Past, Present and Future of School Effectiveness and School Improvement

This collection of David Reynolds' writing brings together, for the first time, many of his most influential and thought-provoking pieces.

Drawing on the author's work from over three decades, the individual article, paper and book extracts combine to give a valuable overview of how school effectiveness is both perceived and changing.

Individual papers have been updated to reflect recent changes, while fresh material firmly sets the collection within a modern context.

Grouped into four coherent sections, the book covers all aspects of school effectiveness by looking at: laying the foundations of the effective school; pushing the boundaries; trying to influence policy and practice; and contemporary cutting-edge solutions.
