Restructuring schools has been the second neoliberal reform since Ronald Reagan government. It was an attempt to improve schools from the bottom up. There were two very different groups introducing the reform. The first group – of teachers and other professionals – planned the reform according to the theory and experience of effective schools. The second group – of businessmen and managers – conducted a typical neoliberal reform according to the needs of business, not of education. Students in schools restricted by educators had better achievements than in schools that had not been restructured.
