Chapter 1 provides a change model and consolidates case data. Chapter 2 presents basic assumptions related to leadership styles and effects of teacher and parent attitudes on change. Chapters 3 and 4 present the collected data from testing the assumptions through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and surveys. Conclusions reported in Chapter 5 suggests the importance in the change process of developing close interpersonal relationships, maintaining a warm and accepting school environment, increasing pupil responsibility, and directing attention toward developing parent knowledge and support.
