%X This article presents findings from a qualitative case study focusing on teachersĄŻ communication concerning expectations and responsibilities in different schools. The study indicates the following: (1) the connection between structural expectations and responsibility is important, (2) different expectation structures provide different opportunities for collective responsibility, and (3) expectations from others and towards others in a learning community can limit or expand opportunities to learn from each other. These findings enable a discussion on how teachersĄŻ responsibility depends on schoolsĄŻ expectations and also raise questions about teachersĄŻ expectations towards themselves and the quality of the schoolsĄŻ expectations towards the teachers
