This book describes and analyses the way in which schools operate in developing countries -- and also explains why they are as they are. The authors look at the existing economic and theoretical contexts around school effectiveness, including an analysis of the causes of economic crisis and its impact on school management. The jobs of various head teachers in developing countries axe detailed. Harber and Davies argue for the democratization of schools as the only way forward for effective worldwide education.
