Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Very slightly sunned spine. Government legislation over the past decade has substantially redefined the role of school governor and the responsibilities of government bodies. The new-style governing bodies are now agents of greater school autonomy within schemes of local management and have entered into a position of accountability as authority is redistributed and new balances of power emerge. This book is an important and ambitious attempt to help school governors find their feet in the new circumstances - and to chart a viable way ahead. Topics covered in detail include: Whose school is it anyway? What place for business models in schools? The primacy of education values. Preventing and removing barriers to communication. Understanding how groups behave. Resolving conflict and establishing groundrules. This persuasive and engaging book will prove essential reader for all governors, heads and senior managers in school. 160 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
