The new edition includes: - a new chapter on globalisation and international comparative education - a new companion website featuring online journal articles relating to each chapter - more guidance on how to critique research - more 'Reader Reflection' boxes, encouraging students to reflect on their own practice throughout - a new framework for analysing policy - new sections within the curriculum and the history of schooling chapters reflecting the latest UK developments - complete update of education policy issues.
