Description

A comprehensive account of contemporary education in Scotland, this book examines the main sectors in depth, scrutinising the historical, cultural, political, and socio-economic dimensions within which schools, colleges, and universities operate. The fifth edition features 67 new authors and updated content, providing fresh insights into recent educational developments, including the impact of the Independence referendum and the post-Brexit years. The book analyses the many factors affecting teachers' efforts to operate during uncertain times, and offers forthright and informed commentary on every aspect of education. New topics include poverty, digital education, children's rights, and the future of post-school education in Scotland. This updated edition is essential reading for anyone concerned to know how education currently 'works' in Scotland.
