Produktbeschreibung
Although higher education in the UK has expanded opportunities for much of the population, in many ways it remains stubbornly elitist. In order to address this crisis in education, Peter Scott, a leading expert and unique voice, examines the development of mass higher education and proposes a 'radical escape-forward'. He calls for more robust action to secure fair access at all levels and changes in the governance and management at both system and institutional levels to ensure more democratic accountability. Setting out a clear and radical programme for reform, this book makes an important contribution to current debates in education in the context of the evolution of the UK economy and wider society.
Autorenporträt
Peter Scott is a Sydney-based software developer and part-time writer. His research and writing interest are life journeys of people and family heirlooms-what the journeys reveal about family, society and change through time. In 2019, he identified 212 entries in an Australian schoolgirl's 1909-1912 autograph album, and outlined 100 lives. The time before today's technology, their life choices and how society treated them. It inspired The Face Beyond the Window set in 2041.
