Driving School Improvement Workbook: Putting strategies and tools into practice in your school - Paperback

by Pamela Macklin (Author), Vic Zbar (Author)

School improvement is not a theory problem. It is a doing problem. Most school leaders know what good improvement looks like - the challenge is knowing what to actually do on Monday, and then after that.

The Driving School Improvement Workbook is the practical companion to Pamela Macklin and Vic Zbar's widely used Driving School Improvement series, designed to help school leaders apply a proven improvement approach to the specific circumstances of their own schools. From evaluating your leadership and building a cohesive team, to diagnosing where your school is at and carrying staff with you through change, every chapter offers structured tools, pro formas and activities you can use immediately.

Grounded in more than three decades of school improvement work across Australia and internationally, this workbook moves beyond argument and into action. It is organised around the key stages of whole-school improvement - leadership, diagnosis, building staff capacity, evidence-informed practice, change management and measuring impact - and is designed to be dipped into as needed rather than read from cover to cover. Whether you are a principal leading whole-school change or a member of a leadership team looking to sharpen your practice, this is the resource that answers the question every school leader eventually asks: So what do I actually do next?
