Local Authority Education in a Democratic Scotland.
Fairley, John
Scottish Educational Review, v30 n1 p61-72 May 1998
Establishment of a Scottish Parliament in 1999 will pose questions about its relationship to local authorities and their role in education. Possible scenarios are discussed in which Parliament pursues centralization or decentralization in education policy. Recent reforms to local government structures may allow local councils to become partners of Parliament in the government of Scotland. Contains 45 references. (Author/SV)
