About this title

Synopsis

Now available in paper, this comprehensive guidebook explores why North American school districts decentralize, how the change takes place, what can go wrong, who gains and who will work against it.

The pros and cons of decentralization are discussed, and the author shows how districts go through three stages of school-based management: exploration, trial and commitment. Based on the experiences of administrators and others who have participated in decentralization, the volume explains what happens when districts decentralize, how to avoid major mistakes and how to evaluate the changeover.

Governors, principals, teachers, support staff, parents - in fact, anyone interested in reforms designed to have an effect on children′s educational welfare - will find this guidebook indispensable.
