Personalizing Learning
Transforming education for every child

by
John West-Burnham & Max Coates

How can schools meet the needs of all young people?

This book presents both a manifesto and a model for the personalization of learning – a switch from the school to the learner; from the needs of the system to the needs of the individual.

Topics include:
  a definition and rationale for personalizing learning
    the nature of learning and the curriculum
    the significance of learning styles
    leading innovation in schools
    the roles of assessment and ICT.

The authors combine emerging theories of learning with best professional practice to support schools in developing their own way of moving from improvement to transformation.

Providing practical case studies of learning-centred approaches in schools, Personalizing Learning is a powerful resource for those concerned with the creation of an education system based on equity, inclusion and effectiveness.

IDEAL FOR: ALL Key Stages

““West-Burnham, Max Coates and a team of contributors have lifted the veil on personalised learning …
… a powerful and necessary restatement of original principles
… useful for every school leader
… should be compulsory reading for all in education
… should be issued to everyone at the QCA as bedside reading.”
