The SelfTransforming School combines an insightful metaanalysis of factors contributing to the success of schools, and an examination of powerful megatrends that are shaping developments in education, to offer the first megaanalysis in education policy and practice. The book spans fifty years, beginning with Caldwell and Spinks groundbreaking work The SelfManaging School which advocated innovative approaches that are now accepted as preferred practice, before offering a prognosis and plan for the future.The book argues that all schools in all settings can secure success for all students in an era where society and the economy are changing constantly and dramatically. Although schools find some support in local and global networks, externally designed restructuring, restaffing, or commandandcontrol direction isnt sufficient to achieve transformation. Instead of replicating particular approaches to achieve modest improvement, leadership of the highest quality needs to be deeply embedded in schools and their systems. Caldwell and Spinks propose three important points that need to be taken into consideration:schools are often at different stages of selftransformationselftransformation requires a high level of professionalism, and must include teacher education and ongoing professional developmentfunding is critically important, and efforts to build a capacity for selftransformation are constrained by what is available.The book gives particular attention to developments in Australia, Brazil, Canada, England, Finland, Hong Kong, India, New Zealand, Shanghai, Singapore and the United States. It will be of key interest to school leaders, policy makers, and academics and postgraduate students engaged in research on equity, student performance in highly disadvantaged settings and education policy.
