From Australia to Lithuania, the authors set forth innovative perspectives and a unified body of research linking trust, accountability, school success, economics, and history. Recognizing that both trust and verification are keys to school improvement, the authors ask: what is the delicate balance between the two? The answers are contextually calibrated and multifaceted. "Trust and Verify" is a treasure trove of deep insights and clear action for school leaders and policymakers."--Linda Lambert, Consultant and Professor Emeritus, California State University, East Bay. - This book argues that nations with higher degrees of trust in their professional educators achieve better results for all students. But trust needs a verification system to remain robust. This compelling book provides a unique, research-based look at trust and distrust and compares their impact on school improvement across seven nations.
