Fair Go Team

This book does not shy away from the complexity of the factors that influence educational engagement for poor students, but it does take seriously the notion that teachers can make a difference for those students.

'In every sense the book represents the ways in which schooling can be conducted as an enlightened enterprise that is mutually transformative for teachers and students alike.' - Susan Groundwater-Smith, Honorary Professor of Education, University of Sydney, Australia
