"Here is a vivid picture of what works for secondary pupils - for emerging and developing bilingual pupils, the gifted and talented, Eastern European Roma, African Caribbean high achievers, a group of Somali boys - and how it can be realised. The contributors draw on their own practice to explain why schools took certain steps to promote the learning of all their pupils, so providing models of excellence for other authorities and schools to follow or adapt." "Anyone working in a culturally diverse secondary school needs this book. It will also be valuable to teacher trainers, students and policy makers."--Jacket.
