"I have had some harrowing moments in gathering my material. I recall the day when I sat with a headteacher who cried as she talked about the impossibility of the pressure of the targets she had been set for her school. This was a well-respected, successful professional person in her second successful school, yet she had encountered extremes of bullying and ignorance from external agencies who steadfastly refused to come and talk with her about the challenges that she and her colleagues faced. On another occasion I was brandished as a heretic by an LEA adviser and a conference of headteachers. It was his behaviour that prompted me to write this book. I look forward to hearing from him again shortly - if he takes the time to read this and reflect on the deeper implications of treating education as just another commodity." -- Paul Clarke.Clarke, Paul is the author of 'Target Setting' with ISBN 9780415238816 and ISBN 0415238811.
