- Summary:
- The five studies in Robin Alexander's "Versions of Primary Education" span the tumultuous period from the mid 1980s to the mid 1990s. This was a time when the educational ideas and practices of the previous two decades were being questioned and primary teachers were being catapulted from the Plowden era into the very different ethos of the National Curriculum. "Versions of Primary Education" examines various approaches to classroom research and offers critical reflections on the capacity of current policies and structures to meet the needs of the next century.
