Abstract This study aims to identify the characteristics of the school facilitating ESD-effectiveness. Via a literature study we synthesized different notions of educational management in relation to education for sustainable development. The ERIC and GreenFILE databases were searched in combination with strategies such as citation chasing, leading to a total of 46 sources. This resulted in a framework that identifies eight characteristics of an ESD-effective school organization: sustainable leadership, school resources, pluralistic communication, supportive relations, collective efficacy, adaptability, democratic decision-making and shared vision. The identification of these characteristics could be a starting point for further research on ESD effectiveness and ESD at the school level. Furthermore, this framework offers educational practitioners working with ESD better insight into their school organization. Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/00958964.2020.1797615.

为可持续发展教育有效的学校组织建立概念框架

摘要 本研究旨在确定学校促进可持续发展教育有效性的特点。通过文献研究，我们综合了与可持续发展教育相关的教育管理的不同概念。结合引用追踪等策略对ERIC和GreenFILE数据库进行了搜索，共检索到46个来源。这产生了一个框架，该框架确定了可持续发展教育有效学校组织的八个特征：可持续领导、学校资源、多元化沟通、支持关系、集体效能、适应性、民主决策和共同愿景。确定这些特征可以作为进一步研究学校层面的 ESD 有效性和 ESD 的起点。此外，该框架为从事可持续发展教育的教育从业者提供了更好地了解他们学校组织的机会。本文的补充数据可在 https://doi.org/10.1080/00958964.2020.1797615 在线获得。
