Description
For the first time, researchers, policymakers and practitioners across the world will have access to a comprehensive mapping of research evidence and policy strategies about education and poverty in affluent countries.
Although there is widespread agreement that poverty and poor educational outcomes are related, there are competing explanations as to why that should be the case.
This is a major problem for practitioners, policy makers and researchers who are looking for pointers to action, or straightforward ways of understanding an issue that troubles education systems across the world.
This unique book brings scholarship and analysis from some of the most influential researchers and writers on education and poverty within one text.
The authors provide a synthesising framework that will help researchers and policy makers to examine future educational policy in a holistic and comprehensive fashion.
