Description - The Life and Work of Teachers by Christopher Day

Bringing together the work of researchers from across the world, this collection links policy, school leadership and teachers lives, the three factors that are arguably the most influential in creating quality learning opportunities for students. Each chapter provides a series of contemporary insights and represents a range of original empirical and conceptual research which focuses upon the ideological, social and educational policy contexts, national and global trends and their impact upon leadership and the quality of teachers work in schools. These related international perspectives give an analysis of the current and future challenges of raising standards of achievement in the third millennium. The chapters collectively show that although the vision for reconstructing education is flawed so far, there is scope for considerable optimism for the future; and that the key to the successful fulfilment of such a vision is the teacher.
