What contribution does realist social theory make to our understanding of education policy? Does the production line apply to children's education? In Europe welfare provision has been subjected to 'market forces'. Over the last two decades, the framework of economic competitiveness has become the defining aim of education, to be achieved by new managerialist techniques and mechanisms. This book thoughtfully and persuasively argues against this new vision of education. Robert Willmott * establishes the theoretical framework that underpins historical and contemporary case-study research of child-centredness and new managerialism * argues that the interplay of structure, culture and agency can be theorised via the methodological device of analytical dualism * appraises school effectiveness research * provides up-to-date case-study analysis of how teaching staffs in two primary schools mediate the contradiction between child-centred philosophy and practice and new managerialism. This major in-depth study will be of great interest to researchers in the sociology of education, education policy, social theory, organisation and management studies, and also to professionals concerned about the deleterious impact of current education policy on children's learning and welfare.
