The COVID-19 pandemic closed schools, but this hiatus provided an
opportunity to rethink the fundamental principles of our education
system. In this thought-provoking book, Alice Bradbury discusses
how, before the pandemic, the education system assumed ability to
be measurable and innate, and how this meritocracy myth reinforced
educational inequalities - a central issue during the crisis.
Drawing on a project dealing with ability-grouping practices,
Bradbury analyses how the recent educational developments of
datafication and neuroscience have revised these ideas about how we
classify and label children, and how we can rethink the idea of
innate intelligence as we rebuild a post-pandemic schooling system.
