The Schools on the Move initiative, now in its third year, highlights a group of over 100 schools that are making substantial progress in raising student achievement and have sustained this progress over several years. This book continues the tradition of the 2006 and 2007 publications-- providing brief profiles of all the schools joining the Schools on the Move community in 2008. More than 40 new Schools on the Move joined the 63 identified in 2006 and 2007. The profiles focus on five broad theories that seem critical to sustained improvement: organizational culture; focus on learning; leadership; assessment and use of date; and social/academic links beyond the school. Contact details for each school listed are provided in a directory at the end of the book.--Includes text from document.

Guiding educators to navigate a clear and coherent path of progress for sustainable improvement Schools are the unit of change for district-wide, systemic improvement. Creating a coherent system of equitable, continuous improvement at each school site requires constructing shared depth of understanding and precision of practices among educators. But how? Schools on the Move provides a roadmap for reducing the variances in climate, culture, capacity, and coherence that impede a school—and all its students—from realizing growth in learning. It applies the transformational wisdom of Districts on the Move at the building level to guide school staff in creating an environment that makes continuous improvement not only possible, but inevitable. Grounded in Visible Learning research and brought to life through case studies of impactful practices in action, it asserts a simplified and focused process for driving school improvement in four key areas Clarity of focus—creating a shared, strategic focus driven by equitable student growth. Shared leadership—cultivating a culture of co-leading and co-learning among school staff. Collective expertise—developing instructional coherence and precision of pedagogy. Continuous improvement—maintaining progress through evidence-based feedback loops. Full of practical tools and resources, including templates for analyzing student learning and rubrics for each of the four key drivers of school improvement, leaders will find the support they need in the transformational process of becoming a School on the Move.

"The context for Schools on the Move is the diversity of Ontario and the good work being done in schools across the province. Emerging from both the Schools on the Move themselves and the research literature are five major themes that describe the practices that are required to move schools forward: Monitoring student learning and setting direction. Managing cultural change. Focusing on teaching and learning. Sharing and distributing leadership for learning Connecting with families and communities. Vignettes from classrooms and schools identify what these themes look like and sound like from the perspective of students, teachers, administrators and parents. In addition, a section on networking learning communities explores a variety of approaches to spread these effective practices across schools."--Pub. website.

Transferring Schools - Grades 1 - 12 (And The Problem With Attending Different High Schools): This book, written by a person who attended nine different schools in twelve years including four different High Schools in four years, is intended to ease the transition process for students who transfer schools. The unique problems students might encounter in transferring between elementary, Junior High, and High Schools are discussed and recommended solutions are given. The book is designed to be a quick and easy read and long term reference guide for parents (or guardians), teenagers, teachers, and administrators in all private, public, and parochial schools throughout the United States and at American schools overseas. Throughout the book, the author describes his own experiences and memories, as well as the special problems he discovered while transferring schools. The book begins by discussing the hidden effects on children and on the parent (or guardian) when there is a transfer between schools. Although transferring between schools is a part of life and has been as ongoing as long as American schools have been in existence, very little, if any, attention has been given over the years to easing the difficulties students face after leaving a school and to recognizing and understanding the problems those students encounter upon arrival at a new school. Therefore, the author believes that transferring schools should be avoided if possible; but recognizes that often a transfer between schools is necessary. Regardless of whether a transfer can be avoided, parents (or guardians) are advised to carefully consider their child when a decision is made to transfer schools. In this book, parents (or guardians) are asked to try as best possible to view objectively the stage of development of their child who is to transfer schools. The transfer to a different school will result in at least some adjustment (or disruption) to the child, and any negative effects of the change will eventually be a concern to the parent (or guardian). The two types of transfers (either at the beginning of the academic year or during the academic school year) are discussed. Then, the difference between transferring schools when a school has been in existence for a number of years or when a new school that has just been opened is analyzed. Transferring schools in different grades can create different problems for the student and so the various aspects of life for the transfer student in elementary school, middle (or Junior High) School, and High School are brought to the attention of the reader. An emphasis is placed on High School because academic performance during those three or four years largely determines what college a student can attend or what type of job a person can obtain upon entering the workforce. When a teenager transfers to different High Schools, the person enters into a different environment from the school previously attended. But there are differences when the transfer occurs at the High School level as compared to earlier years in school, which the author describes through his experiences in the four High Schools he attended. As he recounts, each High School was a different school; but very similar social circumstances occurred and personality types were encountered at the four High Schools he attended. The author concluded that transferring to a different High School or many different schools between grades nine through twelve will likely be an unpleasant experience. As stated in the book, in High School, the personality and academic development for the student who transfers will likely take longer unless favorable circumstances are present in the new High School to reduce the time for the adjustment process to be completed. Thus, the author believes that by having attended different High Schools and knowing persons whose children attended High School over the past twenty years, the mo

Almost four out of five schools reported having either a formal or informal transition program. Approximately one out of every five schools had no program. Temporal reasons were the single largest constraint. Only three schools indicated that they were not aware of a need for transition programs, which represented 5% of all responding schools.

This is a practical guide to supporting transitions at all stages of their school lives, whether they are moving within or between schools, or to sixth-form college or away from home. When educational transitions are managed effectively, pupils can maximise the time and effort they put into the business of learning, rather than using the smae energy in dealing with orientation, friendship and learning-style issues.

Leaving school, whether to move on to training, work or education, is a fundamental rite of passage the world over. This volume draws on a wealth of international sources and studies in its analysis of the ‘transitions’ young students make as they move on from their secondary schooling. It identifies how these transitions are planned for by policymakers, enacted by school staff and engaged with by students themselves. With data from a range of nations with advanced industrial economies, the book delineates how the policies relating to these transitions need to be conceived and implemented, how the transitions themselves are negotiated by young people, and how they might be shaped to meet the varied needs of the students they are designed to help. The authors argue that the relationship, often complex, between what schools provide in the way of preparation, and the ways in which students take up what is on offer, is the crucial nexus for understanding the experience of transitions by young people, and for enhancing that experience. With a host of case studies of transition policies themselves, as well as evaluative data on how they were received by the school leavers whom they were designed for, this valuable addition to the educational literature deserves to be read by all those with roles in preparing the young for their journey into a complex adult world full of pitfalls as well as opportunity.

Reinvent public schools with proven, innovative practices Our homes, communities, and the world itself need the natural assets our children bring with them as learners, and which they often lose over time on the assembly line that pervades most of the public education system today. We see no actions as more important in school than developing, supporting, and reinforcing children's sense of agency, the value of their voices, and their potential to influence their own communities. In Timeless Learning, an award-winning team of leaders, Chief Technology Officer Ira Socol, Superintendent Pam Moran, and Lab Schools Principal Chad Ratliff demonstrate how you can implement innovative practices that have shown remarkable success. The authors use progressive design principles to inform pathways to disrupt traditions of education today and show you how to make innovations real that will have a timeless and meaningful impact on students, keeping alive the natural curiosity and passion for learning with which children enter school. Discover the power of project-based and student-designed learning Find out what “maker learning” entails Launch connected and interactive digital learning Benefit from the authors’ “opening up learning” space and time Using examples from their own successful district as well as others around the country, the authors create a deep map of the processes necessary to move from schools in which content-driven, adult-determined teaching has been the traditional norm to new learning spaces and communities in which context-driven, child-determined learning is the progressive norm.
