Learn to Transform: Developing a 21st century approach to sustainable school transformation - Softcover

"'This book is the most important and valuable publication on the transformation of schools I have ever read. It is also the most credible. David Crossley's personal experience and success have few parallels in any nation... if there is just one book that school and system leaders at any level should read and act on with total confidence, it is this book.' Professor Brian Caldwell "This book provides a valuable contribution to the literature on School Transformation. It clearly indicates what needs to be done, eloquently describes strategies for transformation and provides tangible evidence that the transformation is indeed possible. 'Learn to Transform' is at the same time both practical and optimistic." Professor David Hopkins, HSBC iNet Chair of International Leadership, Institute of Education, University of London"

Learn to Transform presents a philosophy, style and approach to school improvement and transformation that responds to schools' current needs and aspirations. It shows how schools in all settings, and at any stage of development, can be transformed by identifying strategies to enable them to move forward.

The Learn to Transform approach:
Enables any school to explore where they are now and where they might be
Identifies factors that will act as catalysts and/or inhibitors for the transformation journey
Uniquely combines content and process elements with key cultural dynamics to offer a means of assuring transformation is successful.

This second edition tests, trials and takes forward the original model with case studies of successful transformation in a range of different contexts. Transformation can be realisable, attainable and sustainable - this book offers a framework for you to engage confidently with the transformation agenda and provides a range of examples to encourage and support you in creating your own 'transformation journey'.
