The aim of this book is to explore how teachers, students and
parents can be given more of a say in the education system - in how
schools are organised, and in what and how children learn. The book
does not promote a specific view of education, but considers the
means by which educational purposes and approaches can be
conceived, agreed and enacted democratically - a precursor to a
flourishing democratic society. Rebuilding Our Schools from the
Bottom Up has been written in response to significant changes which
have taken place in the education system over the past 30 years. In
England at least, these changes have resulted in an increasingly
centralised system in which the voices of those who teach, those
who learn, and those whose children go to school have been
marginalised. The book covers four main areas: Teacher voice:
listening to the professionals Student voice: involving students as
active participants in their education Parent voice: building a
genuine home-school partnership School community voice: developing
a shared vision With inspiring examples from around the UK and
overseas and a range of resources that can be used by senior
leaders, teachers and parents, the book aims to encourage and
support transformative change so that schools can meet the needs of
the communities they exist to serve.
