Why a National Education Council Is Needed
Bassey, Michael
FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, v60 n2 p171-178 2018
This article provides a historical overview of how education policy has become increasingly centralised in recent years, and most dramatically under Conservative governments which have proclaimed most loudly about decentralisation and autonomy while enacting policies with the polar-opposite effect. It makes the case for the creation of a National Education Council to drive education policy in the future, whereby professional opinion is privileged and a range of views from politics and civil society are given expression.
