Abstract

Many comprehensive approaches to successful school improvement have emerged over the past decade, thus ensuring that school improvement need no longer be a ‘hit and miss’ affair. But the reconceptualisation of successful organisational improvement in educational contexts remains seriously unfinished business.
It is this ‘unfinished business’ that this article reports on. It does so by capturing the outcomes and contributory processes related to an educational improvement project (IDEAS) that has significant characteristics of 'new paradigm' thinking and that been implemented systematically across Australia. The research problem explored the internal and external factors that contributed to sustained student achievement successes in a school system that is well-known for its quality outcomes – Sydney Catholic Education Office.
The article makes use of a well-known literary device – metaphor – to capture and communicate its findings. Specifically, the field of archery, incorporating an arrow and target, is used to demonstrate how successful school improvement was shown in the research system and schools to unfold.
