Expectations for an 'education revolution' have been raised in various countries that will secure success for all students in all settings. Such a revolution must ensure the alignment of educational outcomes, skills required for a strong economy, and the needs of a harmonious society. Why Not the Best Schools? goes beyond system characteristics to provide an in-depth account of how transformation occurs in schools. Fifty indicators are provided to help shape strategies for policy makers and practitioners in schools and school systems. Guidelines for leadership and governance ensure a future-focus for those who are determined to ensure that all students will succeed in the 21st century. This book draws on a five-year study culminating in the International Project to Frame the Transformation of Schools conducted in the U.S., Australia, China, England, Wales, and Finland. The findings are consistent with the McKinsey & Company report on the world's best performing school systems and those arising from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's Programme for International Student Assessment. Why Not the Best Schools? also offers a ten-point, ten-year plan for an education revolution that will result in the transformation of schools. . Also available are Why Not the Best Schools?
