A Field Guide to Transforming Learning, Culture and Place

By Anne Knock PhD

$39.95

School transformation isn't about programmes – it's about people, pedagogy and place working in harmony.

In School by Design, Anne Knock reveals how understanding complexity theory can revolutionise your ability to create thriving learning ecosystems. Drawing from her PhD research exploring the shift from solo to co-teaching as a response to educational complexity, Anne Knock demonstrates that without fundamental changes to how we think about school structures, meaningful transformation remains elusive. This guide explores five essential elements of transformative learning environments and practical strategies you can implement immediately.

Whether you're a school principal, educational leader, or teacher seeking to amplify your impact, School by Design offers a unique blend of theoretical insights and real-world application. Anne's research shows that the most effective educational transformations understand how to align vision, culture and practice through collaborative approaches. With compelling stories of famous minds who struggled in traditional systems, evidence-based frameworks and actionable tools, this book will help you master the art of educational transformation and become the kind of leader who creates schools where every learner can flourish.
