The Art of Standing Out: School Transformation, to Greatness and Beyond

The Art of Standing Out: School Transformation, to Greatness and Beyond

by Andrew Morrish (Author)

Synopsis

The Art of Standing Out is the culmination of 18 years' experience as a headteacher for Andrew Morrish, who has a proven and unblemished record for transforming challenging schools - and one that few Headteachers can match. As a founder CEO of a successful MAT, National Leader of Education, speaker and blogger, Andrew shares the journey from special measures to outstanding - and shows readers clearly and simply how it is possible to create a standout school. Drawing on Andrew's time as Head at two schools led from special measures to outstanding (he is currently aiming for a hat-trick, having taken sponsorship just four terms ago), The Art of Standing Out is a unique blend of personal insights and tried-and-tested strategies to help school leaders create schools that are celebrated far beyond simple Ofsted categorisation. Practical, personal and multi-faceted, The Art of Standing Out is a powerful, must-read blueprint for Heads, leadership teams and governors at schools with world-class ambitions.
