| Publisher Description: In this book we compare the talk about schools to the reality, and outline ways in which parents can check things out for themselves - especially the quality of teaching and learning. We also show how good schools respond to the recurring crises in the lives of our kids - while trying to keep everyone happy. We expect our schools to be good for students, for parents and for the nation. As you are about to find out, pleasing such different groups is often well-nigh impossible. We hope you enjoy the book and that it helps to make you feel not just less anxious, but much more confident about what really does make a good school, and what is less important. |
