Abstract | The school system in England and Wales has undergone a radical period of reform: more emphasis is now given to market-like pressures, diversity, choice and consumer responsiveness. The authors of this book have investigated the impact of these reforms over several years and monitored how parents and schools have adapted to the changes. The book addresses key questions such as: what parents value most in secondary schools and whether they have real choice; whether competitive pressures encourage a concern with image rather than quality of education; whether and how school managers find out about parental views on schools ... While not dismissing the benefits of market-like pressures, this book discusses how policy decisions on the nature of reforms can affect the extent to which choice and educational opportunities are equally available to all parents and pupils. It suggests how a different, more sociologically informed notion of the public-market may be more appropriate. (DIPF/orig.). |
