The Dangerous Rise of Therapeutic Education confronts the silent ascendancy of a therapeutic ethos across the educational system and into the workplace. Controversial and compelling, Kathryn Ecclestone and Dennis Hayes’ classic text uses a wealth of examples across the education system, from primary schools to university and the workplace, to show how therapeutic education is turning children, young people and adults into anxious and self-preoccupied individuals rather than aspiring, optimistic and resilient learners who want to know everything about the world.
Remaining extremely topical, the chapters illuminate the powerful effects of therapeutic education, including:
The Dangerous Rise of Therapeutic Education is an eye-opening read for every teacher and leader across the field of education, and every parent and student, who is passionate about the power of knowledge to transform people’s lives. It is a call for a debate about the growing impact of therapeutic education and what it means for learning now and in the future.

It is a call for a debate about the growing impact of therapeutic education and what it means for learning now and in the future. This text is eye-opening reading for anyone who retains any belief in the power of knowledge to transform people's lives. Its insistent call for a serious public debate about the emotional state of education should be at the forefront of the minds of every agent of change in society. This item is printed on demand.
