39Bruner The most important subject in school
is school itself.
40The normal approach to education and curriculum
based on the assumption that knowledge is
department-alized into subjects.
Several attempts from 1970 and onwards to remedy
this situation, quickly hit the bedrock of
political differences.
Globalization forces subjects individually as
well as in relation to other subjects to
redefine themselves in order to produce new
knowledge.
41Questions which must now be asked by teachers and
students
What is core knowledge in my subject?
What can my subject NOT contribute with to the
production of knowledge?
What are the strengths and limitations of my
subject?

School manage- ment
Within the team itself the team members must
develop both a structure and a set of procedures
that support and enhance a team culture, a
culture which challenges the practicing
professional as a lone ranger.

59Let us steal a little room here for a story. A
certain French Nobleman always used to blow his
nose with his fingers, something quite opposed to
our customs. Defending his action (and he was
famous for his repartee) he asked me why that
filthy mucus should be so privileged that we
should prepare fine linen to receive it, and
then, going even further, should wrap it up and
carry it carefully about on our persons that
practice ought to excite more loathing and nausea
that seeing him simply excrete it (wherever it
might be) as we do all our other droppings. I
considered that what he said was not totally
unreasonable, but habit had prevented me from
noticing just that strangeness which we find so
hideous in similar customs in other countries.
Michel de Montaigne, 1533-1592
