The Labour Party and the Need for Change: Values, Education and Emotional Literacy/Intelligence
Matthews, Brian
FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, v54 n1 p65-72 2012
The author argues that when the Labour Party has analysed its values emotional development has been neglected. He shows the importance of emotional literacy and uses education as a vehicle to show how Labour when in power reinforced right-wing ideology. Ways of changing education policy are indicated. It is hoped that this article will promote a lively discussion.
