Description - Education Policy and Social Reproduction by John Fitz

Sixty years ago, secondary education for all was established across Britain. This book assesses British education policies since then, including a valuable review of key recent policy initiatives. The old system of academic selection has given way to policies concerned with choice and competition, which has had profound effects on students and their families, throughout the schooling process and beyond. This book develops the current debate on the extent to which education is a force for change in a class-divided society, placing notions of class, power and control at the centre of the issue at a time when emphasis has been on learner identities, and is an important resource for students, policy analysts and policy makers.
