Description
This work critically engages with recent debates taking place within schools and LEAs on the setting of targets to improve pupil performance and draws upon data from schools currently developing their response to targets set in collaboration with their LEA. From these data the author raises both concerns as well as positive findings from the target setting context.
Reviews / Votes
'Target setting is another topic that has recently become fashionable. Schools and students are being encouraged to set targets for almost everything that moves. This book will critique the current use of targets and target setting but will also explain how targets can be used constructively in schools. Dr Clarke has been working with a range of schools around the country and has a lot of practical as well as theoretical experience to contribute to the series.'- Series EditorMore details
