Conference Announcement:

"Shared School Decision-Making" is a one-day symposium to examine the
development of school councils across Canada and learn from their
experiences.  Also on the program will be a presentation about school
councils in New Zealand, where school-based management has been part of
the public education system for eight years. 

Can school councils help create more successful and accountable public
schools?  How do they work in practice? What does the research tell us
about the conditions necessary for successful school-based
management?
