Within the United Kingdom questions about the relevance of
educational research and its relationship to policy have recently
been the centre of a prolonged, public and sometimes acrimonious
debate.
The chapters in this book illustrate the ability of ethnographic
work to assist in understanding the effects of educational policies
to gradually influence the policy discourse. The book includes
studies of policy initiatives at the local level that show the
extent to which an intended change actually occurred in practice,
others where actual change occurred, but there were unintended
consequences as well as those planned by the policy, and others
that illuminate the contradictions within the original policy
itself. Chapters focus on a diversity of topics such as the
ideology of educational 'success', politics and school mathematics,
ITC teaching, sports coaching, basic skills provision for
offenders, second language learning, ESOL teaching, primary
teachers work, and the teaching of reading and spelling.
