"Replacing top-down accountability with bottom- up support for teachers."
Jelmer Evers and René Kneyber
Flip The System, 2015
WHAT THE FLIP?
Why do we continue to let politicians set the agenda for education?
How much longer can teachers stand being overwrought by futile bureaucracy?
Are we doing the best for our pupils?
WE PROPOSE
FLIPPING THE SYSTEM OF INFLUENCE IN EDUCATION
GIVING TEACHERS PROFESSIONAL AGENCY OVER HOW THEY WORK
IMPROVING EDUCATION FROM THE INSIDE OUT
WHERE THE FLIP?
Read the original.
"Education is threatened
on a global scale by
forces of neoliberalism,
through high stakes
accountability,
privatization and a
destructive language of
learning.
In this book, teachers from around the world and other educational experts make the case to move away from this uneducational economic approach, to instead embrace a more humane, more democratic approach to education."
