One of a series of six books in The Education Adviser series, this book is an excellent point of reference for prospective, new or experienced education advisers and leaders, which focuses on quality systems in education.

Divided into three parts, the book explores the specifics of: understanding what quality systems are; continuous improvement; and leadership and motivation. It presents a diverse range of perspectives from system leaders, headteachers, key influencers and education advisers working at local, national and international levels. Many of the chapters focus on real case work and conclude with the authors' analyses of impact, resulting in a thorough, insightful and practical guide for those working in an advisory capacity with education leaders.

• applying a range of quality improvement tools
• understanding systems through the lived experiences of learners
• the impact of quality systems on continuous improvement
