When belonging is a school's guiding principle, more young people at all levels experience a sense of connectedness and friendship, perform better academically, and come to believe in themselves; their teachers feel more professionally fulfilled, their families more accepted. The originality of this highly readable book lies in its scope. It offers international analysis from the OECD alongside insights from the author's extensive research in schools, powerfully supported by observational vignettes and drawings from the children, young people and teachers who have been her co-researchers UR - https://www.uclpress.co.uk/collections/open-access/products/171324 ER -
