| Description: |
The traditional account of education is that it teaches pupils the skills to earn a living, and also teaches a concern for the welfare of others, a love of the many cultures of learning and a commitment to the best values of society. This book seeks to examine and restore these considerations. |
| Synopsis: |
The many public debates launched by governments on education, such as Tony Blair's emphasis on "education, education, education" have nonetheless failed to consider the place of the good society in educational endeavour. The traditional account of education is that it not only teaches pupils the skills to earn a living, but also teaches a concern for the welfare of others, a love of the many cultures of learning and a commitment to the best values of society. Education and the Good Society seeks to examine these considerations and to restore them to the centre of the educational debate. |
