Hierarchies and "Local" Markets: The Geography of the "Lived" Market Place in Secondary Education Provision.
Taylor, Chris
Journal of Education Policy, v16 n3 p197-214 May-Jun 2001
Considers competition among schools in the UK state education system in three ways: as self-governing, hierarchical, or nonhierarchical competition spaces. The diverse schools in the marketplace compete unequally. Denominational and selective schools do not compete for local students. Nondenominational and nonselective grant-maintained schools top the hierarchy. (Contains 29 references.) (MLH)
