Education Systems and Learners

Focusing on the impact of neo-liberal policies in education, the book critiques the Research Excellence Framework and international assessment systems like PISA, highlighting their detrimental effects on teaching and learning practices in England's schools and higher education. David Scott challenges current management approaches and empiricist research methods, proposing an alternative educational model that counters right-wing political agendas. This work is relevant for educators, students, researchers, and policymakers in the field of education.
