Rezensionen

How helpful is the material within this book? Extremely! Navigating the prolific amount of advice and research available on school and system improvement proved to be a complex challenge when some of us started on that journey in 2010 in the Northern Territory. Having key partnerships and the intellectual input from many of the people and organizations credited in the preface of this book enabled a grassroots initiative to grow to a system-wide and systemic improvement journey with impact that continues today.

Maintaining focus for sustained implementation and delivery of improvement amongst the whirlwind of competing priorities is challenging and often exhausting. To have alignment from the boardroom to the classroom through the iterative process of change was and continues to be a deep inquiry process.

It s wonderful to have the processes and implementation strategies articulated in such an accessible manner. It also validates the complexity of the process and just how hard it can be to remain on track and to sustain when key personnel and context change. What a wonderfully useful resource Arran, Douglas, Janet, and John have delivered. As an educator and/or system leader who wants to see student progress accelerate, you will find real value in engaging with this book, and it will help as you talk with others to gain their input and support as you build for impact."
