“The purpose of the day had been for headteachers to step back from the pressing day to day issues of running busy schools and to consider how to ensure that their students received the best provision possible. David provided an excellent balance of challenge and ideas, both at a theoretical level and set within the real context of a successful case study. All those who attended felt that the day had been extremely useful, as it provided an opportunity to reflect on the current educational climate and the provision within their schools. I would have no hesitation in recommending David to colleagues on school leadership teams.”

 Sustainable School Transformation: An Inside-Out School Led Approach explores how we can best build a truly world class education system. It presents a theoretical and practical case for an alternative approach that combines the rigour of traditional ‘top-down’ accountability models with the engagement and buy-in of school led ‘inside-out’ approaches – a combination which can be applied to any school in any context internationally. David and a range of practitioners and academics draw on their extensive experience of past approaches to school improvement in the UK and US.

 "Anybody who is in education at this time of huge change and challenge will find their hopes and worries addressed in this book.” –  Estelle Morris, former Secretary of State for Education and Skills, UK

 “David Crossley expertly turns concepts on their head, developing notions of lateral accountability and an "inside-out" approach. This timely book is a powerful but down-to-earth analysis of the changing landscape for schools. It is a book full of optimism and opportunities. It will be welcomed by those who are passionate about making a difference in education.” –  Steve Munby, Chief Executive, CfBT Education Trust, UK

“Sustainable School Transformation is an outstanding contribution to the international research on educational improvement....Educators everywhere will benefit from these invaluable contributions by David Crossley and his colleagues who show us that with enough determination and perseverance we can make all of our schools places of learning and joy for our students.” –  Dennis Shirley, Professor of Education, Lynch School of Education, Boston College, USA
