The Dangerous Rise of Therapeutic Education confronts the silent
ascendancy of a therapeutic ethos across the educational system and
into the workplace. Controversial and compelling, Kathryn
Ecclestone and Dennis Hayes' classic text uses a wealth of examples
across the education system, from primary schools to university and
the workplace, to show how therapeutic education is turning
children, young people and adults into anxious and self-preoccupied
individuals rather than aspiring, optimistic and resilient learners
who want to know everything about the world. Remaining extremely
topical, the chapters illuminate the powerful effects of
therapeutic education, including: How therapeutic learning is
taking shape, now and in the future How therapeutic ideas from
popular culture have come to govern social thought and policies How
the fostering of dependence and compulsory participation in
therapeutic activities that encourage the disclosing of emotions,
can undermine parents' and teachers' confidence and authority How
therapeutic forms of teacher training undermine faith in the
pursuit of knowledge How political initiatives in emotional
literacy, emotional wellbeing and 'positive mental health'
propagate a diminished view of human potential throughout the
education system and the workplace. The Dangerous Rise of
Therapeutic Education is an eye-opening read for every teacher and
leader across the field of education, and every parent and student,
who is passionate about the power of knowledge to transform
people's lives. It is a call for a debate about the growing impact
of therapeutic education and what it means for learning now and in
the future.
