“Although standards-based reform emerged in the United States and the United Kingdom, the idea has spread across the world, as an approach to systemic reform. It might appear that there is a world-wide “tsunami” of standards-based reform that will standardize and homogenize the educational system across the globe. This volume makes it very clear, however, that there is no one approach to standards-based reform and countries change – there is a danger in paying attention to its evolution and impact in only one context. That’s what makes this volume so valuable. Louis Volante has drawn together descriptions from a wide range of countries, all involved in large-scale reform and using standards and assessments as part of their process. What becomes very obvious is that the language may be the same but the words reflect different contexts and can represent very different ideals, values, and processes. I’m sure you will find this book as interesting and challenging as I have – a gem that pushes your thinking and does not allow readers to remain neutral.” (Lorna Earl)

This book is designed to help school leaders critically examine what they should expect from students, how they will know when students have achieved those expectations, and how to design and implement instruction to ensure that every student achieves agreed-upon goals. It asserts that leaders are first and foremost teachers. Chapter 1, "Teaching to High Standards: Understanding What Teachers Need to Know and Be Able to Do," reviews the instructional demands of standards based reform, detailing specific teacher knowledge and skills critical to ensuring that all students achieve to high standards. Chapter 2, "Identifying Teacher Skills in Practice," presents two classroom vignettes illustrating the teaching behaviors described in the previous chapter. Chapter 3, "The Work of Instructional Leadership: Supporting Teachers to Build and Sustain Critical Skills," discusses the kinds of learning opportunities teachers need to build and sustain critical skills, offering examples of how instructional leaders can provide such opportunities by creating new structures for teacher learning and using familiar structures more effectively. Chapter 4, "Leaders as Teachers: Leaders as Learners," identifies potential challenges as instructional leaders take on greater responsibility for focusing on, exploring, and influencing classroom practice. An appendix presents tools for fostering and assessing instructional skills. (Contains 23 references.) (SM).

Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students. The parents reported an incredible change in their children, who blossomed under the programme. By the end of the following year the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 94. This book will launch the message onto a much larger platform. Stephen R. Covey takes the 7 Habits, that have already changed the lives of millions of people, and shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits -- be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw -- are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well.
