"Truly a magnificent piece of work! The discussion questions are ideal for study groups and team meetings. This is the new administrator’s bible. Keep it by your bedside, especially when the scores come in."
“Gives rich, engaging, and often inspiring glimpses into the stories of eight American schools that went from horrendous to excellent. The book could provide an effective scaffold for personal reflection or serve as a source book for a masters program in educational administration.”
“This book is not too thick that students would feel over whelmed by purchasing it or discouraged from reading.”
"Streshly and Gray have placed school leaders’ wandering in perspective, concentrating on the day-to-day practices of the concept. This is a book for everyone concerned about the never-ending search for practices that enrich teacher and student experiences leading to enhanced student achievement."
Coherent, easy to navigate and engaging; all the right words which sum up this latest edition. My favourite element of the book is the revision questions and case studies at the end of each chapter, making troublesome revision a thing of the past.
