Inspection - What's In It for Schools? (Paperback, New)

This text traces the development of different forms of inspection. It draws on a range of sources such as research and inspection evidence, writing by key figures, teachers' own experiences, newspaper headlines and other comments. The book includes summary questions and other signposts for the reader, as well as a fully annotated bibliography. It also pays attention to other types of school self-evaluation.
James Learmouth explores the impact of inspection on schools in difficulties, and outlines the ways in which research and other evidence suggests that schools improve.
