Product reviews for A School Built on Ethos

Anne Watson, Professor Emeritus, Department of Education, University of Oxford


This inspirational book is much more than a report of building ethos in a publicly funded selective sixth-form school. Don't dismiss it as a quirk that creates a newly privileged class. Instead it is a model of how school leadership enriched by a deeply human hinterland can transform students, teachers and a community. Poetry, art, music, people, hope, trust: all play a part in founding a fresh culture that turns lives and expectations around. Visionary education can make social change possible - here's one way.
