1998 0-7734-8272-5
This study aims to provide a way for teacher to look at the schools, to map the culture which they create among themselves and the leadership which makes this possible. It describes a collaborative approach to inquiry, enabling them to celebrate the things they prize and provide a platform for development and change in the pursuit of excellence.
