Education in the 1980s: England and Wales.
Peterson, A. D. C.
Comparative Education, v16 n3 p275-80 Oct 1980

These may be exacerbated by the countries' uniquely decentralized educational power structure in which conflicts may be generated by political differences between local and national levels and by national accountability and testing efforts.
