Product reviews for High Performers

`Alistair Smith visited 20 of the top performing state schools to investigate `what makes them successful?` He asked the same questions in each school and in High Performers he shares the findings. His style is lucid and pleasing; his findings reasoned and cogent.

I commend the book to school leaders and classroom practitioners. It gives persuasive evidence-based guidance on why some of the best have succeeded. It focuses on core purpose, student outcomes, learner engagement, classroom teaching, roles and responsibilities, professional development, managing data and the school as a community.

High Performers is an easily read and impressively practical `how to` guide full of `tips` that draw on original research.`
