Samenvatting:

Directed at the managers of primary (elementary) schools, this guide shows how to motivate staff, drawing on detailed case studies of both positive and negative experiences. It offers advice on involving teachers in their schools and creating "extended professionals".



Anyone who has spent time in education knows that teachers achieve more when they feel better motivated. The media, policy makers, teachers' unions, and a multitude of others have opinions on how leaders should motivate staff, but what really works?In this timely and constructive book, Linda Evans draws from a wealth of evidence and experience to answer this question. She shares examples drawn from a range of educational settings, from schools for young children to colleges for older students, and shows the contrast between successful and unsuccessful management of teachers' motivation.
