Knowledge, Values and Educational Policy focuses on what schools
are for and what should be taught in them, how learning is possible
across boundaries, and issues of diversity and equity. Policies and
practices relating to schools are also considered. Within this
volume, internationally renowned contributors address a number of
fundamental questions designed to take the reader to the heart of
current debates around curriculum, knowledge transfer, equity and
social justice, and system reform, such as: What are schools and
what are they for? What knowledge should schools teach? How are
learners different from each other and how are groups of learners
different from one another, in terms of social class, gender,
ethnicity, and disability? What influence does educational policy
have on improving schools? What influence does research have on our
understanding of education and schooling? To encourage reflection,
many of the chapters also include questions for debate and a guide
to further reading. Read alongside its companion volume,
Educational Theories, Cultures and Learning, readers will be
encouraged to consider and think about on some of the key issues
facing education and educationists today.
