There is much research devoted to educational strategies, policies, reform initiatives and outcomes. However, what is often missing is a generally agreed set of policies or principles which Ministers can draw on as a guiding framework. This book shows how political context impacts the development of education policy and reveals the critical and dynamic relationship between politics, policy and process. This book gives new insights into politicians as leaders in large-scale education system reform, distils lessons and identifies three practical strategic frameworks which provide new ways of understanding and engaging in whole system reform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOffering unique \"insider\" insights from an Education Minister, their staff, public servants and key stakeholders, this book is written for all politicians, policy makers and educators involved in school improvement, as well as students of educational leadership and policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sheridan Dudley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032848413\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032848419\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.36d","brand":"Sheridan Dudley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46465667793151,"sku":"9781032848419","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4a5eb58f-168e-4774-ac87-aa3a9b4d6b13.jpg?v=1736346931","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/politicians-and-education-policy-sheridan-dudley-9781032848419","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
