Publisher's Summary

It's Our School, It's Our Time outlines a whole-school approach to teacher-pupil collaboration, illustrating how aspects of social inequality can be addressed by involvement in the school community and active participation in decision—making from an early age. The book presents insights into the psychological processes that are at work when pupils and teachers share decision-making, and how this can harness and increase motivation for teachers and pupils.

Combining both theory and examples of practice, this book provides clarity about the impact of collaborative decision-making and how it can help pupils to take ownership of their classrooms and promote greater cooperation and productivity. This book:

- Draws on stories from Dr. Rowe's own study and experiences, and the accounts of other educators and researchers

- Shows how teachers and school leaders have overcome common hurdles that those in conventional schools might encounter

- Provides research-evidence and practical examples from real-life classrooms

This companion guide will help teachers to transform achievement, behavior, and motivation through greater collaboration with their pupils.
