Paperback. Condition: New. This book offers a striking, close-range account of a California high school where top-down control quashed a stunningly successful teacher- and principal-led turnaround."Liberating the Schoolhouse" mirrors the story of many successful school reforms where district administrators, failing to understand the power and durability of teamwork, impose institutional power that directly undermines reform.Wellford Wilms provides a detailed account of a California high school where just such administrative control quashed a stunningly successful teacher- and principal-led turnaround. It provides a depressing insight into American public education, vividly describing an archetypal example of a school that works until districts take over, and raises the urgent question of why healthy organisations are so difficult to sustain. "Liberating the Schoolhouse", according to Wilms, is the closest he has ever been to an answer."Liberating the Schoolhouse" goes to the heart of why successful reforms are rarely sustained, concluding that the real answer lies in changing our minds about how power is used.It makes invaluable reading, not just for the general public, but for all those engaged in the mainstream education debate, both within and outside of the profession. "Liberating the Schoolhouse" will also be an enlightening read for students and professors of education as they consider the importance of school site leadership.
