註釋This book examines recent school reforms in England and Wales, The USA, Australia, New Zealand and Sweden. It suggests that, at the same time as appearing to devolve power to individual schools and parents, governments have actually been increasing their own capacity to 'steer' the system at a distance The authors review the research evidence on the impact of the reforms to date. They conclude that there is no strong evidence to support the educational benefits claimed by the reformers and considerable evidence they are enabling advantaged schools and parents to maximize their advantages. They argue that if equity is to be regained there is a need to redress the balance between consumer rights and citizen rights in education.
