The most common approach is to fit a linear regression of student current achievement on student prior achievement, where the school effects are the school means of the predicted residuals. In the literature, further adjustments are usually made for student sociodemographics and sometimes school composition and “non-malleable” characteristics. However, accountability systems typically make fewer adjustments: for transparency to end users, because data are unavailable or of insufficient quality, or for ideological reasons. There is therefore considerable interest in understanding the extent to which simpler models give similar school effects to more theoretically justified but complex models. We explore these issues via a case study and empirical analysis of England’s “Progress 8” secondary school accountability system.","PeriodicalId":47698,"journal":{"name":"School Effectiveness and School Improvement","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42997360","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tracking system in Geneva has been reformed recently. Prior to the reform, the tracks were very hierarchical but less selective; following the reform, the tracks are still very hierarchical but the entry criteria are more selective and there is greater flexibility to move from one track to another. Using longitudinal data, this article compares these two types of tracking system and analyses the inequalities produced in terms of the skills acquired by students and the path taken once compulsory education is completed. Our analysis shows that the new tracking system following the reform has a major impact on students of medium ability. They are more likely being assigned to a lower track, which has a significant adverse impact on their learning and subsequent pathway through education.","PeriodicalId":47698,"journal":{"name":"School Effectiveness and School Improvement","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09243453.2021.1942928","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47211506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most studies focus on external forces’ (particularly governments’) role in promoting collaborative turnaround, paying less attention to turnaround schools’ reactions to external actors. With specific reference to Shanghai, China, this qualitative empirical study examines the complexity of schools’ role in school turnaround through network governance. Drawing on document review and interview data, this study found three patterns of turnaround schools’ interactions with local governments and third-party actors in different school turnaround networks – compliant follower, reserved enforcer, or rational aspirant. Turnaround schools’ differentiated responses to external actors in China’s collaborative turnaround indicated their different awareness and capacity to utilize external resources. This resulted from schools’ different levels of disadvantage and leadership and external actors’ different extents of power exercise and differently impacted schools’ positions and power relations with external actors.","PeriodicalId":47698,"journal":{"name":"School Effectiveness and School Improvement","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09243453.2021.1942929","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46013929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results show that diversity of board composition and board practices contribute to increased board effectiveness, whereas board effectiveness is less robust in schools with stronger principal influence over board-level decision making. The results provide an indication that while some board attributes (i.e., diversity of board composition and board practices) indirectly influence school performance through their positive association with board effectiveness, excessive influence of the principal over board-level decisions may impair board effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":47698,"journal":{"name":"School Effectiveness and School Improvement","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09243453.2021.1939734","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43211812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite increasing expectations for school principals to be instructional leaders, there is little evidence that they – or other system or school leaders – are responsible for anything more than ensuring structures are in place for teachers to work with data. In this study, we analyze interview and observational data collected over the period of 1 academic year in four elementary schools in one rural school district in the United States. We consider results through a conceptual framing of collective leadership to understand how leaders across district, school, and classroom levels do or do not support data use in the school system. Among our findings, data use is espoused and portrayed but generally unsupported. Data team meetings and structures are embedded in school cultures, but they are mostly managed and routine, prioritizing expediency and process over instructional adaptation or response. As a result, we conclude that the establishment of data team meetings and related structures is critical but insufficient to improve instruction and increase student learning.","PeriodicalId":47698,"journal":{"name":"School Effectiveness and School Improvement","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09243453.2021.1923533","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48300695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examine the impact of teachers’ self-selection into teacher peer excellence groups (TPEGs), which involves lesson co-planning, peer observation and feedback, and collaborative lesson-plan revision on participating teachers from 14 pilot public schools in Tennessee. Using survey results and statewide administrative data, we apply a propensity score matching strategy, and find that TPEG teachers experience growth in their instruction ratings and value-added scores in the subsequent year, although the longer term impact is attenuated. We contribute to the literature by identifying deprivatized practice and instruction-focused collaboration as key features of teacher communities of practice, highlighting the importance of using standards-based instructional quality measures, linking participation in collaborative inquiry cycles to teacher-level outcomes, and estimating effects applicable to situations in which teachers exercise agency and collaborate voluntarily.","PeriodicalId":47698,"journal":{"name":"School Effectiveness and School Improvement","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09243453.2021.1923532","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47065000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement guidelines for systematic reviews, we selected 18 articles focused on different approaches to building collaborative environments in schools. The main finding was that the most widely used collaborative modalities were related to instructional processes and improving student academic performance.
