Trust in Schools: A Core Resource for School Reform
Author: Anthony S. Bryk and Barbara Schneider
Year: 2003
Important consequences play out in the day-to-day social exchanges within a school community. Recent research shows that social trust among teachers, parents, and school leaders improves much of the routine work of schools and is a key resource for reform. This article discusses social trust in schools, factors that help to shape it and what benefits it produces. A longitudinal study of 400 Chicago elementary schools shows the central role of relational trust in building effective education communities.
