Abstract

The following iterative review of literature culls together research that addresses the terms school improvement, school effectiveness and best practices in a manner that provokes thought and leads the reader into the grey areas of educational effectiveness. This review is set within many landscapes as studies originating from many countries are loosely tied together to advance several lines of thought concerning teacher praxes, accountability and educational outputs.  As an endpoint the reader is placed within the suppositions that walkthroughs, mentoring, professional development and accountability are actually related and necessary if we are to improve educational capacity, outcomes and educational effectiveness via best practices.
