The review discusses “What’s worth fighting for in education?” by Andy Hargreaves and Michael Fullan. While the book is now 10 years old, the problems of determining the important issues in school (and higher) education and fostering collaborative links between schools and the communities which they serve are as critical now as they have ever been.
