School Effectiveness, School Improvement
by Alma Harris and Nigel Bennett
Published 28 February 1995
The pressure on schools to improve and to raise achievement continues to be a dominant issue in both school and government policies. School Effectiveness and School Improvement seeks to develop the debate further, providing academics and practitioners alike with
• a summary and discussion of research on school effectiveness and school improvement up to the present;
• new perspectives on these fields, developed from other traditions of thinking and research;
• a consideration of the role of organization theory;
• an integrated view of these current perspectives; and
• clear, practical implications for policy and practice.
