Review:
“This volume is strong both on the historical background of policy and on proposals for future policy imperatives . . . These ‘explorations in developed governance’ will provide an excellent seminar course for both researchers and all practitioners concerned with formulating and operating policy and the questions which are raised and the hypotheses suggested should encourage numerous further investigations . . . the editors are to be congratulated on the high quality of their contributors and the production values are those we would expect from a major academic publisher . . .” –School Leadership & Management
(School Leadership & Management)“. . . a worthwhile addition to most educational libraries and a useful port-of-call for anyone seeking a ready overview of how education in Wales evolved to its present state.” –History of Education

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Since the Education Reform Act of 1988, education policy-making in Wales has undergone considerable change. Although the Act had a centralizing impact, the framework was put in place for the development of a range of education policies which, in terms of their origins, creation and implementation, had distinctively Welsh characteristics. Now, with the establishment of a National Assembly in Wales, questions about the appropriate scope of policy-making in Wales have come to the forefront of political debate. The essays in this book consider the extent to which Wales has developed its own educational agenda in a range of areas from primary schooling to higher education. The contributors also examine the limitations of that autonomy in relation to London and speculate about the ways in which devolved governance is likely to influence the nature of education policies in Wales in the future. Education Policy-Making in Wales is the definitive study of the emergence of education policies in Wales since the 1988 Education Reform Act. It is the most complete analysis to date of a major element of state policy in Wales as well as contributing towards our understanding of devolved governance. This work considers the extent to which Wales has develped its own educational agenda in a range of areas from primary school to higher education. The limitations of this autonomy in relation to London are also examined. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
