<br/><br/> "In this important new book seven authors bring together stories and questions about the lives of children, families, teachers, and administrators. Lives are seen up close, in all their particularity, and explored in terms of the contexts that shape the experiences of students and staff. These stories provide an alternative view of what counts in schools, with a shift away from viewing the school as a business model towards an idea of schools as places to engage citizenship."--BOOK JACKET.
