About this title

Synopsis

Everyone has some understanding of what schools are about. Whether they are studying educational administration or are involved as a non-educator in the school system, Understanding Canadian Schools will build on readers' understanding of the way Canadian schools have come to operate, and to challenge their thinking about why they are the way they are. They will find that matters of school organization are important because they have such an enormous influence in determining the nature of teachers' work and of students' learning experiences. Learning about school organization is also important because such knowledge gives all those involved in public education the ability to understand and be more effective in their work environment.
