Description

This book is one of a series being published as part of the work being carried out on the Disaffected Pupil Programme in Oxfordshire (DPP). Each of the books in the series examines factors which prevent positive learning taking place, evaluates practice which enhances learning and describes the multi-dimensional phenomenon of disaffection. It is in the nature of a programme related to the "disaffected pupil" that it should be concerned with learning and personal development during primary and secondary education with a consequent focus upon the society and culture of schools. This book moves into a broader social and political context. Uneasy Transitions introduces the more open, diverse and complex arena of post-compulsory education and training.
