Driving School Improvement: Practical strategies and tools is designed to support school leaders in practical, adaptable and context-specific ways to advance their school’s improvement journey.

The focus of the book is implementation. A broad collection of tools, activities and pro formas are provided, which have been used successfully in a range of schools. School leaders can begin at their school’s point of need and select the path that is most valuable to their setting.

With a Foreword by Michael Fullan, this second edition builds on the success of the original resource and, with extensive feedback from the field, delivers significantly expanded, refined and updated research, case studies and techniques to help schools meet the implementation challenge.

With the help of Driving School Improvement, whole-school improvement can be embedded so that it becomes truly sustainable, resulting in measurable long-term progress in learning outcomes for schools, teachers and students.

The essential difference between the two editions is the focus of the second edition is ways to ensure consistent implementation. The first edition developed the instructional model, and the second emphasises how to ‘make it so’, supporting implementation that occurs consistently across the school and therefore helps to embed the changes that school is seeking to make.

"You will find no book that is as thorough and helpful for improving one's school on an ongoing basis."
- Michael Fullan
