This book looks at multi-racial primary schools, addressing the tension between planning based on annual cycles for long-term coherence versus continual, incremental planning for short-term flexibility. Amongst other things, the book: describes how staff and governors in multi-racial primary schools manage the process of planning to implement multiple innovations; discusses the strategies adopted by such schools and the implications of these strategies for schools in other settings; and develops an approach to planning which draws upon a "flexible planning" model in order to contribute to the international debate on school improvement.
