From Ruskin to the Learning Country: Education Policy, the State and Educational Politics in England and/or Wales, 1976-2001.
Phillips, Robert; Harper-Jones, Gill
Educational Review, v54 n3 p297-305 Nov 2002
Analysis of educational reforms and policy debates in 1976, 1988, and 2001, including recent government working papers in England and Wales suggests that the two regions are now following different routes. In England, policy rhetoric emphasizes discourses of modernization and market forces; the Welsh paper is more allied to universal, free local school systems. (Contains 44 references.) (SK)
