Contesting Policy and Practice

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this book Suzy Harris places the present situation within the context of subordination to market principles; delineates the changing and uncertain relationship between schools and the Careers Service; shows how the politics of curriculum relevance marginalizes careers teaching; describes the downward path to complete exclusion from The National Curriculum; and points the way for policymakers to eschew rhetoric and rebuild the Careers Service.
