David Hargreaves Book order

Focusing on social mobility and cohesion, the book delves into the complexities of curriculum design, the interplay between academic and vocational education, and the role of exams in the educational landscape. It also explores the impact of independent schools and questions whether a decentralized system of self-governing schools could enhance the overall education service.

This book looks afresh at German unification and the vexed role played by Bismarck. Beginning with a longer term view of unification between 1815 and 1848, the book seeks to test, and ultimately to challenge, certain key assumptions, by way of a concise but thorough examination of key episodes.
