In an era when schools are drowning in a plethora of latest strategies, compliance measures, and endless data demands, they find themselves constantly chasing the next new thing while struggling to keep teaching and learning as their number one priority. Dr William DeJean is offering a new way forward that these times are calling for.

Rather than adding to schools' already full plates, this book cuts through the noise to reveal a simple yet powerful system that helps schools streamline all their teaching and learning efforts, take on new knowledge with ease, and stay laser-focused on making learning stick for everyone.

Whether you're a principal, instructional coach or part of a school's leadership team, DeJean doesn't just show you what to do – he shows you how to do it. The result? A new way forward for schools without the overwhelm.

"This book shows us the way to keep our focus on what’s important – student learning. This system will not only reduce teacher and leader overwhelm, but it will also vastly improve learning for all students. It brings together one whole system we can introduce into our schools that keeps us focused on the main game."
- Genevieve Simson, former school principal

"In an age of incessant distractions, here is a book that refocuses our collective mission – teaching and learning. The Unleash Learning System provides a research-based guide to improving student learning. It provides a shared language to support leaders to keep their teachers and schools working on what is most important – students."
- Mary Chiodo, Campus Principal, Copperfield College

"Steeped in evidence and rich with practical strategies, A New Way Forward for Schools is an essential resource for school leaders seeking to streamline practices into sustainable systems. Dr William DeJean provides a thoughtful and actionable approach to reducing cognitive overload for both teachers and leaders, offering a clear pathway to more effective and efficient schools. This book is both empowering and deeply attuned to the challenges leaders face in the modern era."
- Karen Corbett, secondary school leader, Western Australia

"This is an extraordinary gift of a book on every level: its content and design reduce overwhelm; it relies on us to create from a clear sense of calling; it encourages, supports and guides us educators into promising possibilities. And it respects and honours us for who we have chosen to be."
- Dr Margaret Wheatley, author of 13 books
