How often should schools replace textbooks?

Answer 1

The school district I work in is on a five-year rotation. Core content courses get new textbooks every five years.

I would disagree that literature remains the same though.

Good Luck....

Answer 2

Well in my school system its on a rotating basis and you get your new book about every 7-8 years. Is it often enough? No. I'd say you should replace your textbook as often as you do a major upgrade/replacement of a computer. So about every 3 years sounds right. Is it going to happen? No. So this is the reason why I don't use the textbook as a teaching tool. I basically use it for reading skills and the questions in the chapters.

Answer 3

In a perfect world with money galore, schools should replace books every 5-7 years. However, many schools keep their textbooks for 10-15 years.
