School Leadership Between Community and the State: The Changing Civic Role of Schooling Lundie David
This book presents changes in UK and global educational governance in the context of a radical shift in the operating logics of politics and its interaction with education. Operating through the logics of public choice economics involving both real markets and quasi-markets, policy reforms have increasingly framed school values, and the value of schooling, in line with a politically determined and nostalgic discourse of 'British values'. Beginning from the colonial origins of political interest in education, the author traces a fundamental shift in the patterns of governance of schools in England in the opening decades of the 21st century.
Tracing the processes and mid-level actors mediating between government and school leaders, the This stands in contrast to a previous focus on 'community cohesion' which foregrounded school partnership with the parent community and wider society.
