Publisher's Synopsis
Challenge Partners is a cooperative organization of schools owned and led by the 300+ schools that work together to drive school improvement. Schools are challenged through annual, independently led peer evaluations that affirm what is working well and identify priorities for improvement. They are supported through sharing knowledge and disseminating best practice. Emphasizing trust and collaboration, Challenge Partners aims to reinforce school self-improvement. The peer reviews are crucial in creating an upward spiral of multiple gains from which all the participants - reviewed and reviewers alike - can benefit. Now two of the UK's top education consultants present the results of the first full-scale independent evaluation of Challenge Partners' quality assurance reviews, making fascinating reading for all with an interest in this aspect of a self-improving school system.
