  Do you feel that too much emphasis is being placed on school management and not enough on teaching? There is an increasing awareness that the only way that schools can respond to the challenges that face them is to move away from an emphasis on teaching and management to a new approach based on learning and leadership. These are the findings of a pioneering study which analysed trends in our understanding of how children and adults learn. Effective Learning in Schools is the first book to study an integrated approach to learning and leadership. Providing:proposed structures and processes to help schools become learning organisations * specific and detailed information to help schools make the transition * case studies which offer guidance on tried and tested strategies. Backed up with case studies and examples to offer guidance of tried and tested strategies, Effective Learning in Schools is ideal reading for head teachers, deputy head teachers and students on education management courses.
