Product reviews for About Our Schools

About Our Schoolsis not simply a professional co-biography from two of this era’s most influential educators. It is an important, indeed landmark, piece of educational research. The authors do draw on their own experience and their chiselled wisdom about so many aspects of schooling shines through just about every page, holding the reader’s attention leaf after leaf, but this is also an extensively and rigorously researched text and deserves to be viewed as such.

Brighouse and Waters are seeking to spark a great debate on the future of education. We ought to take up the invitation this time, as should Bridget Philipson and her team.
