Description:

Part of a series written for student teachers and practising teachers, this book aims to offer an understanding of the range of issues facing educationalists since 1839 but focusing on contemporary issues. Generic topics are explored and future developments are discussed.

Synopsis:

Did the Thatcher years and their aftermath constitute a revolution or a restoration in education. Do they represent a departure from, or a reinforcement of tradition? Contemporary Debates in Education is a thought-provoking volume which reviews the reforms of the eighties and early nineties, then follow this with an examination of the long-standing issues in education over the last century in order to relate current reforms and changes to their broader historical background, so that those with a general or professional interest in education can better understand the process in which they are involved.
