Embrace the reality of uncertainty and the need for balance in decision-making with the book’s discussion of school improvement models. By adopting the surplus model, a system of Intelligent Accountability can be established based on trust, accountability, and fairness. Recognizing that some teachers may warrant more trust and autonomy than others, the concept of fair inequality emphasizes that autonomy must be earned. Trusting teachers more ultimately leads to increased autonomy, fostering a system that promotes both accountability and fairness.
