Description
This book is a major contribution to school improvement and explains what VT is and how it works to raise standards, re-invigorate the aspiration gene and so make schools more fun.
It returns schools to a process of effective learning relationships and explains why VT is cultural transformation that raises standards and reinvigorates teaching and learning. VT invites schools to a simpler organisational world where learning is a process and where every child actually matters. It invites schools to walk the talk of values and to rebuild family partnerships. This is a book that combines healing, spiritual intelligence and education.
