A recent study estimates that the number of schools who miss the AYP mark will more than double to 5,000 schools in 2009–2010.
Applying the turnaround processes successfully used in the corporate world to the education market, 'Leading School Turnaround' offers new perspectives and concrete, evidence–based guidelines for the educational leaders and administrators faced with the challenge of turning their low–performing schools around.
