An introduction to the emerging concept of System Redesign. Its proponents see this as a framework to help schools to innovate, which breaks down the concept of school into its most basic building blocks. These elements can be first questioned and then configured in a new way to meet the needs of 21st century schooling. We take a look at how four schools are using this technique to transform some of their most fundamental elements - from curriculum and student leadership, to traditional stages of education and the concept of year groups. Professor David Hargreaves, who developed the concept, argues that innovation in schools is alive and well, and in order for the education system to change, innovation must be led by those who work in it - not central government. We ask, is System Redesign the key to transforming the relationship between Government and schools? |
