Drawing on philosophical work, including that of Derrida, Foucault and Heidegger, the authors deconstruct the ethic of improvement before exploring key dimensions of education, its institutions and technologies. Each chapter draws on international case studies, provides engaging questions and makes suggestions for further reading to support the reader. Topics covered include: - The Ethic of Improvement ; - Teacher Education ; - Leadership and Management ; - Lifelong Learning ; - The Rhetoric of Numbers ; - The Governance of Childhood ; - The State of Education Research. An essential text for all looking at how we think and talk about education and improvement."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aEducation$xPhilosophy 606 $aEducational change 606 $aSchool improvement programs 606 $2Teaching of a specific subject 615 0$aEducation$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEducational change. 615 0$aSchool improvement programs. 676 $a371.2/07 700 $aFlint$b Kevin J.$01795138 702 $aPeim$b Nick$f1952- 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970868803321 996 $aRethinking the education improvement agenda$94336195 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03491nam 22005651 450 001 9910957638403321 005 20250528174724.0 010 $a9781529715033 010 $a1529715032 010 $a9781473987425 010 $a1473987423 010 $a9781473988170 010 $a1473988179 035 $a(CKB)3710000000907808 035 $a(OCoLC)1141064527 035 $a(CaToSAGE)SAGE000009126 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4715091 035 $a249142 035 $a(FR-PaCSA)88934605 035 $a(FRCYB88934605)88934605 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000907808 100 $a20200124e20162016 fy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aForest School in practice $efor all ages /$fSara Knight 205 $aFirst edition. 210 1$aLondon :$cSAGE Publications Ltd,$d2016. 215 $a1 online resource (204 pages) $cillustrations 311 08$a9781473948921 311 08$a1473948924 311 08$a9781473948914 311 08$a1473948916 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $gpt. 1$tNature Provision for Very Young Children --$g1.$tNature Kindergarten --$g2.$tUrban Forest School --$g3.$tRural Day Nurseries --$gpt. 2$tForest School Opportunities for 3 -- 5 Year Olds --$g4.$tScotland --$g5.$tWales --$g6.$tIreland --$g7.$tEngland --$gpt. 3$tForest School at Primary School --$g8.$tState Schools Compared --$g9.$tIndependent Provision Considered --$gpt. 4$tForest School at Secondary School --$g10.$tForest School as Part of Special and Inclusive Education --$g11.$tForest School as an Intervention Strategy in Mainstream Schools --$g12.$tForest School and Pupil Referral Units --$gpt. 5$tOther Forest School Occurrences --$g13.$tImproving Mental Health --$g14.$tSupporting Parents --$g15.$tHolistic Perspectives and Conclusions. 330 8 $aA beautiful full-colour book by Forest School expert and teacher Sara Knight that inspires and encourages individuals of all ages to take an innovative approach to outdoor play and learning.
