The aim of the research presented in this report was to investigate the most effective ways for small rural primary schools to work together in order to improve provision and raise standards. The project sought to examine the circumstances and context of small rural schools in Lincolnshire and evaluate their different leadership models (such as collaborations, federations, partnerships or academy chains) to: (1) identify successful approaches to collaboration likely to have a positive impact on pupil achievement; (2) identify barriers to successful collaborative models; (3) understand the role of the local authority in enabling effective partnership; (4) place the Lincolnshire approach in the context of approaches being adopted in other areas in England and best practice in partnership as identified in research literature; and (5) identify issues and recommendations for policymakers to consider. A total of 99 small rural schools with a maximum of 110 pupils were included in the study. The performance and operation of these schools, along with their pattern of partnership working, were analysed using a mix of desk-based and field-based research activities. The county councils included in this summary review are: (1) Cornwall; (2) Cumbria; (3) Derbyshire; (4) Devon; (5) Essex; (6) Norfolk; (7) Northumberland; (8) Shropshire; and (9) Suffolk. All of the county councils included had a mix of formal and informal partnership working within their rural primary schools. [This report was written with Kelly Kettlewell and Jane Salt.

Introduction to Rural Planning: Economies, Communities and Landscapes provides a critical analysis of the key challenges facing rural places and the ways that public policy and community action shape rural spaces. The second edition provides an examination of the composite nature of ‘rural planning’, which combines land-use and spatial planning elements with community action, countryside management and the projects and programmes of national and supra-national agencies and organisations. It also offers a broad analysis of entrepreneurial social action as a shaper of rural outcomes, with particular coverage of the localism agenda and Neighbourhood Planning in England. With a focus on accessibility and rural transport provision, this book examines the governance arrangements needed to deliver integrated solutions spanning urban and rural places. Through an examination of the ecosystem approach to environmental planning, it links the procurement of ecosystem services to the global challenges of habitat degradation and loss, climate change and resource scarcity and management. A valuable resource for students of planning, rural development and rural geography, Introduction to Rural Planning aims to make sense of current rural challenges and planning approaches, evaluating the currency of the ‘rural’ label in the context of global urbanisation, arguing that rural spaces are relational spaces characterised by critical production and consumption tensions.

Leading scholars from the Academic Archers network combine a love of The Archers with their specialist subjects, in Custard, Culverts and Cake - a sometimes serious, but most often wry look at the people of Ambridge. Scholars take on subjects such as food, geography, social media, faith and naturally, the Helen and Rob storyline.

Realising Innovative Partnerships in Educational Research examines the underlying principles and actions that support the development of and engagement in partnerships in educational research. With social justice at its core, the work in this book represents various architectures of innovation, whereby new ways of thinking about partnership research are proposed and practices of teaching and learning are reconciled (or not) with existing education contexts and practices. With contributions from educational researchers and practitioners from New Zealand, and international commentaries provided by established scholars in the field, the book draws together key experiences and insights from students, teachers, community members and researchers in tertiary, community, school, and early childhood settings. The research in this book seeks to address a gap in our understanding, extending knowledge beyond simply the benefits of partnership work, to examine how successful partnerships can be initiated, enacted, and sustained over time. This book invites reflection on the following provocations: Why engage in partnerships for educational research? How has this happened in the past and what needs to happen for the future? What is unique about the New Zealand context and what might researchers in other countries learn from our collaborative and culturally responsive research methodologies? What could be some of the underlying principles that support the development of and engagement in collaborative research? How do we evaluate the effectiveness of research partnerships in education to shift the focus to the future?

This book discusses key aspects of life in schools and classrooms, and surveys the changes that have occurred over the years in educational research, policy making and practice in these school and classroom settings. It not only examines cutting-edge research in these areas, but also showcases good practices in the field. Among the topics reviewed are recent developments in assessment, methods for collecting and analysing data on classroom practice, school leadership and the pros and cons of class size and small-class teaching; topics which are currently hotly debated in education systems around the globe. As such, the book objectively examines the various debates, and surveys the full range of evidence available. Education researchers, policy makers and practitioners often hold differing views about the reasons for teacher and student behaviour in classrooms and, for example, its relevance to class size. Many of these views are based on ‘gut feelings’ rather than hard evidence. Unfortunately, these three groups, with differing perspectives, often ‘talk past each other’ rather than engage in a productive, mutually beneficial dialogue. The book builds an effective bridge between researchers, policy makers and practitioners regarding the impact of these various aspects of classroom life, so that the viewpoints of each can be carefully considered and evaluated.

Looking at the potential for research-use by educators to improve schools for all young people, An Ecosystem for Research-Engaged Schools presents a range of ground-breaking research and fascinating case studies. It carefully explores the elements and dimensions of research-engaged schools using an ecosystems perspective to study the layers and interconnections that occur amongst the people and institutions that exist within the ecosystem. Allowing the reader to consider how to ensure independent elements of the ecosystem are maintained to ensure an effective balance, this book brings together contributions from international experts working in a variety of fields such as school leadership, professional development and accountability. Key issues facing the research-use ecosystem both theoretically and empirically are covered, with examples of innovative practice, new theories and value systems. The book also provides an insight into the exciting possibility of such a system of learning and innovation in our schools where structures, cultures, practices and policies align to promote research-informed school improvement. With chapters bringing together issues from different aspects of the system, this book: expands the analysis of evidence and research-informed practice, considering the wider environment within which it is undertaken shows the interplay and tensions between aspects of the ecosystem and illustrates how different aspects of the ecosystem affect evidence use reconciles all aspects of the ecosystem within an overarching framework which attempts to explain the complex totality of the ecosystem. Designed to both challenge and inspire, An Ecosystem for Research-Engaged Schools truly bridges the gap between theory and practice. It will be an invaluable asset to those currently working in the area, allowing them to think more deeply about their work and the theoretical mechanisms that underpin it. Policy makers, practitioners and teachers will also find this book a fascinating read.

School Management and Multi-Professional Partnerships explores the personnel structure within the context of schools. It is aimed at the School Business Manager (SBM) to provide an overview of the different relationships they will form and manage in their day-to-day work. Where schools do not have an appointed School Business Manager, the role is instead fulfilled by the school's leadership team (e.g. Middle Managers, Bursars, Deputies and Headteachers) and this book will also act as a guide for these personnel. Internationally, school staffing structures are evolving within the context of schools as extended and community centers of learning. This means that, in addition to managing internal staff, SBMs will increasingly encounter other staff and professionals who work with schools. This new context demands alternative and innovative strategies to develop new working relationships. This book provides examples of such strategies. It has been written by and is based on the experiences of these other professionals, and through such case studies builds up a framework for action for School Business Managers. The book is divided into two sections: internal/in-house professionals, including teaching assistants and administrators external professionals, including facilities management, the health professional, the education law officer, and those responsible for transport. Each chapter: - provides a brief overview of the relevant activity (finance, health work, etc) and the legal situation regarding the role - gives examples of good practice encountered in this activity area - identifies the key issues in this activity area - describes the terms of reference for the role as perceived by the worker - suggests strategies to adopt as a SBM to maximize the effectiveness of the role for the school. This book will provide all practicing and trainee SBMs with complete information on which they can base their own learning and build their own relationships to make for an effectively managed school system. It will be invaluable core reading for School Business Management courses (all levels) and school management professional development courses.
