Description

This academic examination of secondary comprehensive education traces the evolution of educational policy and practice from the 1960s through the 1980s, analysing how the meaning and implementation of comprehensive and progressive education shifted within state education systems. The book explores the institutional tensions and systemic transformations that characterised this period, with particular focus on the deepening crisis affecting comprehensive education and the substantial restructuring of secondary education driven by government policy changes. First published in 1988, this Routledge Library Edition provides historical context and critical analysis essential for understanding educational development during this transformative era. The work synthesises research on educational sociology, policy implementation, and institutional change, making it an invaluable resource for scholars examining the relationship between educational structure and social inequality.
