The signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998 appeared to open
up a new phase in the history of Northern Ireland and indeed world
politics generally. Hailed from the outset as a model that would
inspire peace processes in other countries, it sought through
careful negotiation and delicate compromise to bring to a
conclusion a conflict that had cost over 3600 lives, damaged
Britain's international position and at times come very close to
undermining relations between the UK and Ireland. While the peace
has held it is obvious that serious divisions continue to make a
final settlement of the Northern Irish question very difficult.
This comprehensive and original study is the first to explain in
detail how the Good Friday Agreement ran into trouble, why we are
still some way from a final settlement, but why a return to war is
most unlikely - even in an age where global terror now threatens
world order more seriously than at any time in the past. This new
edition of an established, authoritative text will be essential
reading for students, researchers and academics of Irish politics,
conflict and peace studies, and international relations. -- .
School evaluation is often linked to issues of accountability,
performance assessment, regulation and inspection, where the work
of teachers and/or the functioning of the school becomes the
subject of critique. School Evaluation with a Purpose explores the
latest thinking surrounding external and self-evaluation in
schools. Examining teacher professionalism, reflective practice and
what really matters in education, it considers the key challenges
around current evaluative practice and puts forward alternative
methods of evaluation, placing reflective practice and teacher
professionalism at its heart. Exploring the stories of evaluation
and the practice of resilient schools and school leaders in five
European contexts, the book aims to support and promote the agency
of teachers, school leaders and students. This book will be of
particular interest to school leaders internationally, researchers,
master's students of Education and Education Leadership, and
policymakers responsible for law enforcement in the field of school
inspection.
