Drawing on 500 interviews conducted over a four period with the Principal, parents, teachers and students at a regional low SES school, this book challenges the profile of one school as represented on the 'My School' website which publishes the results of National Assessment Program in Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN). Chapters situate the original research within an international and national educational context, before exploring topics including leadership and management, student behaviour, constructs of the 'good teacher', the involvement of parents in school and the 'digital revolution'. The book closes with an appraisal of the major themes that emerged from the multiple perspectives of the study.
This is the first book to provide a longitudinal ethnographic study of a school in Australia, which examines the impact of the 'education revolution' on the Principal, parents, teachers and students. It comprehensively challenges the official 'My School' representation of a low SES school and will appeal to researchers in education, as well as those involved in postgraduate teacher education and sociology courses, both from Australia and internationally.
