The Cambridge Primary Review Research Surveys is the outcome of
the Cambridge Primary Review England 's biggest enquiry into
primary education for over forty years. Fully independent of
government, it was launched in 2006 to investigate the condition
and future of primary education at a time of change and uncertainty
and after two decades of almost uninterrupted reform. Ranging over
ten broad themes and drawing on a vast array of evidence, the
Review published thiry-one interim reports, including twenty-eight
surveys of published research, provoking media headlines and public
debate, before presenting its final report and recommendations.
This book brings together the twenty-eight research surveys,
specially commissioned from sixty-five leading academics in the
areas under scrutiny and now revised and updated, to create what is
probably the most comprehensive overview and evaluation of research
in primary education yet published. A particular feature is the
prominence given to international and comparative perspectives.
With an introduction from Robin Alexander, the Review 's director,
the book is divided into eight sections, covering:
- children 's lives and voices: school, home and community
- children 's development, learning, diversity and needits
- aims, values and contexts for primary education
- the structure and content of primary education
- outcomes, standards and assessment in primary education
- teaching in primary schools: structures and processes
- teaching in primary schools: training, development and
workforce reform
- policy frameworks: governance, funding, reform and quality
assurance.
The Cambridge Primary Review Research Surveys is an essential
reference tool for professionals, researchers, students and
policy-makers working in the fields of early years, primary and
secondary education.
