This book is the outcome of a colloquium series organized by The
University of Sydney in which leading and emerging researchers were
invited to name what they took to be the deep flaws at the heart of
contemporary educational and policy and practice in Australia and
globally - to voice their potentially 'heretical' views on what
most urgently needs to be done. The chapters in this collection are
paired to offer two takes on each topic, from supplementing to
critiquing to countering and most points in between. The issues
addressed in this volume include: the place of education in
national and international marketplaces, mass testing and
standardisation, the future of 'multiculturalism' in schools, the
public funding of private schools, the complicated relationship
between evidence and policy and the shifting politics of
inequality. This book is based on the idea that recognising deep
disagreements on big issues is a necessary accompaniment to
imagining and developing productive ways forward.
