| Abstract |
|
Based on one of the largest surveys of primary school effectiveness ever undertaken--the researchers monitored the progress of nearly 2000 students in 50 British inner-city primary schools for four years--School Matters not only shows exactly what goes on in primary schools--it shows how they vary in their success and explains why. Among the many important and hopeful results: - Schooling IS more important for pupils' progress than background. - High expectations DO have an effect on pupil achievement. - Schools CAN change. The report identifies 12 key factors-all within the control of the school-that lead to effective education. Effective schools increase the progress of ALL pupils.
