Abstract

Review of the article 'The role of whole-school contexts in shaping the experiences and outcomes associated with professional development'. The study examined the in-service programme in relation to different school contexts (size, type, disadvantaged, status); collegiate ethos and leadership and middle-management structures in the school. A description and discussion of the evaluation is followed by an overview of the PCSP and the new primary curriculum.
