About this book

Eric S. Glover's book examines accountability systems in schools and the problems they create. Rather than treating such systems as a route to reform, it asks why schools so often improve in spite of their negative effects. The argument starts from what the book calls the lead-teach-learn triad.

Glover introduces the idea of developmental empowerment, which asks people in schools to see themselves as learners who keep changing, as do the systems they work within. The concept is offered as a way to move school reform forward.

Educators, school leaders and anyone interested in how schools change should find the argument relevant to their work.
