"Lucy Bailey invites stakeholders in international schools to critically examine their likely contribution to global inequality and, equipped with this perspective, suggests pathways to support agendas for progressivism and equity in education. This lucid book should be essential reading for all international school stakeholders whether educators, parents, governors, or investors." -- Darren Bryant, Associate Professor and Head of the Department of Education Policy and Leadership, The Education University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong "The distinction of international schools and their breath-taking growth appears to have outstripped professional safeguards and lived ethics. While the optics of the industry remain pedantically mired in systemised injustices and inequities, Lucy Bailey takes firm aim at a sector in need of a soul, not a mission statement. Bravo!" -- Alexander Gardner-McTaggart, Lecturer in Educational Leadership, The University of Manchester, UK "Integrating her own research with a comprehensive review of recent literature, Lucy Bailey's International Schooling... is a vital resource for enhancing understandings of international schooling. Juxtaposing analytic angles and empirical vignettes, Bailey offers a set of core registers and significant fault lines for studying this heterogenous and dynamic movement." -- Paul Tarc, Associate Professor, Western University, Canada "This book offers a scholarly exploration, from a mainly sociological perspective, of a range of issues arising in the burgeoning field of international schooling. Engaging with issues of privilege, power, diversity and equality, the book will be of value both to those charged with the promotion of international education in schools and to those researching in the field." -- Dr Mary Hayden, Professor of International Education, University of Bath, UK, "Lucy Bailey invites stakeholders in international schools to critically examine their likely contribution to global inequality and, equipped with this perspective, suggests pathways to support agendas for progressivism and equity in education.

Synopsis
International schooling has expanded rapidly in recent years, with the number of students educated in international schools projected to reach seven million by 2023. Drawing on the author's extensive experience conducting research in international schools across the globe, this book critically analyses the concept of international schooling and its rapid growth in the 21st century. It identifies the forces driving this trend, asking to what extent this is an enterprise that meets the needs of a global elite, and examining its relationship to national systems of education. The author demonstrates how wider social inequalities around socio-economic difference, ethnicity, 'race' and gender are reproduced through international schooling and examines the theory that 'international' curricula are in fact Western curricula. Presenting research from diverse countries including Russia, Malaysia, the UAE, the UK, and Bahrain, the author explores ways in which international schools adapt to local cultural contexts and examines the views of parents, students, teachers and school leaders towards the education that they provide.

- c***a (121)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThe seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!
- m***4 (1611)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoLeaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration
