'Wonderfully illuminated by children's essays, stories, poems,
pictures and plans, this ground-breaking book offers a unique
snapshot of the perceptions of today's school pupils'. -French
bookstore Lavoisier www.lavoisier.fr In 2001, The Guardian launched
a ground-breaking competition called 'The School I'd Like', in
which young people were asked to imagine their ideal school. This
vibrant and compelling book presents material drawn from that
competition, offering a unique snapshot of perceptions of schools
by those who matter most - the pupils. In 2011, The Guardian
re-launched the competition and this updated 2nd edition reflects
upon the next generation of reflections and summarises, through the
children's insightful commentary, what has changed over the
intervening decade. The book is wonderfully illustrated by
children's essays, stories, poems, pictures and plans. Placing
their views in the centre of the debate, it provides an evaluation
of the democratic processes involved in teaching and learning by: *
identifying consistencies in children's expressions of how they
wish to learn * highlighting particular sites of 'disease' in the
education system today * illustrating how the built environment is
experienced by today's children * posing questions about the
reconstruction of teaching and learning for the twenty-first
century. The School I'd Like: Revisited offers a powerful
perspective on school reform and is essential reading for all those
involved in education and childhood studies, including teachers,
advisors, policy-makers, academics, and anyone who believes that
children's voices should not be ignored.
