African Schools as Enabling Spaces : A Framework for Building Communities of Care Hardback
Edited by Vanessa (University of South Africa, South Africa) Scherman, Linda (University of South Africa, South Africa) Liebenberg
Part of the Perspectives on Education in Africa series
Hardback
Description
Using African schools as case studies, this book presents an implementation framework that can be used by schools internationally to drive social change and support their role as enabling spaces, allowing learners to thrive. Recognising the increase in demands, violent conflicts, lack of stability, and social strain prevalent within the current African school system, this book covers the challenges that negatively impact children's development by understanding and presenting a framework that ensures a holistic social and educational support system can be created for students.
Featuring contributions from a broad range of leading scholars, the book ultimately addresses the critical need in academic and practice research for the importance of schools in building civil societies.
Arguing for the importance of schools as places of stability, social inclusivity, and communities of care, this book will have direct relevance to academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the field of education policy, international and comparative education and character education.
Those working in school leadership, management and administration environments will also benefit from this volume.
