Title: Accelerated Schools: A Decade of Evolution
Abstract/Description: The Accelerated Schools Project is designed to create schools that provide enriched and accelerated learning opportunities for all students throughout the curriculum. This chapter assesses the first decade of Accelerated Schools which has grown from two pilot schools in 1986 to almost 1000 schools in 1996. The key factors and changes in the development of the project are considered in light of the lessons learned in making sense of large scale change.
