Theoretical and practical exemplification of the education adviser's skills, knowledge and understanding in relation to school improvement.

This is the second book in The Education Adviser series which fully aligns with the AoEA accreditation and focuses on school improvement, supporting the professional learning of education advisers.

The education system has undergone significant change recently, giving education advisers a huge part to play, especially around school improvement. Divided into three parts – context and causality, building capacity, and collaborative school improvement – providing a thorough exploration of school improvement strategies. The range of contributions – from MAT leaders, headteachers, system leaders, key influencers and education advisers – showcases diverse perspectives and approaches and provides critically reflective opportunities.

This book delves into the following topics and more:

• understanding a school’s improvement within a wider context,
• advising on curriculum, and pedagogy,
• supporting new head teachers in identifying priorities,
• building capacity to create and sustain an inclusive school culture,
• system-wide collaboration.

Perfect for new or prospective education advisers, it will help school leaders fully understand the complexities of school improvement and how to apply this knowledge in practice.
