Transforming education policy cover

Education is in a state of continual change and schools ever more diverse. People want more participation and meaning in their lives; organisations want more creativity and flexibility. Building on these trends, this timely book argues that a new paradigm is emerging in education, sowing the seeds of a self-organising system that values holistic democracy. It is an essential read for anyone (academics, policy-makers, practitioners, students, parents, school sponsors and partners) who is interested in how education can broaden its horizons.

"I can think of few colleagues who write with the insight, fluency and passion on the subject of democracy and schooling than Philip Woods. His latest book Transforming Education Policy: Shaping a Democratic Future is destined to become a classic. " Fenwick W. English, School of Education, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
