How
to Transform Learning through System-Wide Reform
by
Phil Jones and Maureen Burns
How effective school partnerships
can enhance the quality of teaching and learning, and
the creation of more vibrant, cost-effective provision.
How business and industry can
take on a more strategic and structured role in the
construction of meaningful learning experiences.
How high-quality local authorities
can foster personalized provision in their own area.
The success of personalizing learning
in schools depends on the effective working together of all
parties that form the education system. This book examines
the roles and responsibilities of the key stakeholders: national
government, local authorities, partnerships of schools and
the world of business and industry.
The authors expose how the current
system fails a significant number of young people and the
economic well-being of the nation, and present a realistic
alternative perspective based upon examples of current practice
at local and national level. This growing base of evidence
signposts how the learning experiences of students
can be truly transformed through innovative and effective
teaching and learning.
