Description

The book analyzes school improvement from the perspective of theory and practice in China. By theoretically exploring definitions, characteristics, and models of school improvement, the author develops and explains an effective set of criteria. Ten cases of best practice are shared, exploring different aspects of school improvement such as school development planning, teacher human resource management, and instructional leadership. Integrating theory and practice, the book further discusses the generation and application of best practice case studies. It contributes to the knowledge of new management and practical innovation in the field of school improvement. Policymakers, educators, managers, researchers, and all those interested in improving the quality of basic education will find this book helpful.
