Too many seem to ignore that there are many good things worth preserving in our schools and others that need to be reframed or recast to give them greater currency.  This book builds on what has worked and makes it better. The message – being purposeful and patiently focused on long-term success – is a powerful one that needs to be heard above the din.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cstrong\u003eDavid Chojnacki, Executive Director \u003cbr\u003e  Near East South Asia Council of Overseas Schools\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 638g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 178 x 253 x 22 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781506398433\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garfield Gini-Newman,Roland Case","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44102357745914,"sku":"9781506398433","price":28.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/d19dd556bb3666325f1297db8664be75.jpg?v=1631329090","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/creating-thinking-classrooms-leading-educational-change-for-this-century","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
