Yet Labour has inherited a quasi market education system and remains under the direction of reform during the coming year.

The politics for the National Curriculum and its assessment are explored, alongside issues of lifelong learning and IT policy. The book explores the key questions of the future reform of education in contemporary Britain with contributions from the leading experts in education, education policy, politics and sociology.Product Identifiers
