School Peer Review For Educational Improvement And Accountability by David Godfrey, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

This book explores the extent to which peer reviews can lead to school improvement. It identifies and describes barriers and facilitators to their development, use, sustainability and expansion. Importantly these issues are explored through numerous international cases and new empirical evidence. School peer reviews are a form of internal school evaluation driven by schools themselves rather than externally imposed, such as with school inspections. Schools collaborate with other schools in networks, collect data through self-evaluation and in school review visits. They provide feedback, challenge and support to each other. Despite the increased use of school peer review in system reform and school improvement, very little research has been conducted on this model and there is a dearth of literature that looks at the phenomena internationally. This book fills this gap and will be an invaluable source for academics in school leadership and educational evaluation and accountability, as well as those working at the level of executive leadership in school networks, NGO's and government organisations. | School Peer Review For Educational Improvement And Accountability by David Godfrey, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
