Reengineering and Total Quality in Schools

The rapid changes in education and technology will mean that children entering schools in the year 2000 will not come out of the education system until 2116. They will work in firms that have not yet been started and with technologies that have yet to be invented. Is your school ready to meet this challenge? Reengineering and Total Quality in Schools fundamentally challenges the way we think of schools and the learning process. By describing a total quality and reengineering approach, it sets the scene for an examination of how leading schools are rethinking themselves in order to cope with the challenges of the 21st Century. Backed with case studies and examples, this book examines: *the impact of new technology on learning *total quality approaches as a means of school improvement *the realignment of school structures *current practices *planning radical strategies for the future. Contributed to by a team of leading practitioners, this is a key text for head teachers, deputy head teachers and students on education management courses.
