Description
Barnaby Lenon, a former schoolmaster and headmaster who is chair of the Independent Schools Council, takes an in-depth look at the elements that make up a successful school. He examines leading and latest research on school leadership and management; looks at how teachers, pupils, parents and governors can achieve results; and puts the spotlight on subjects, exam systems and social mobility. For his research, he visited a number of schools that are achieving outstanding results: John Perryn Primary School, Acton; Tollgate Primary School, Newham; King Solomon Academy, Marylebone; Burlington Danes Academy, Hammersmith; West London Free School, Hammersmith; Michaela Community School, Wembley; St Mary Magdalene Academy, Islington; Dixons Kings Academy, Bradford; Tauheedul Boys' School, Blackburn; London Academy of Excellence, Newham; and Brighton College. His analysis of their innovations and achievements provides an insight into some of England's most successful schools.

Media Reviews
Higher standards, school autonomy, exams that stretch, getting the basics right - all the education reforms we have undertaken in recent years have been based not on ideology but simply on what works. That is what Barnaby Lenon explores in this fascinating assessment of all that is good (and bad) in education today. A must-read for teachers, parents, policy makers and anyone interested in making sure that all children are able to reach their potential. -- David Cameron * former Prime Minister and Leader of the Conservative Party *
