Rachel Macfarlane and Paul Jenkins have built on their wide experience and successful practice to write a book which addresses one of the most difficult issues facing schools today. The volumes of texts that already exist on school improvement are so often based on the assumption that the child is attending school and willing to learn. Making School Unmissable makes a strong argument that the prerequisite of this – getting children and families to engage – is now so critical that it needs to be addressed more seriously.
This is a book that will make you think, but also set you on a pathway to responding to what is undoubtedly a question for our times.
