The issues are presented in four main sections - Theoretical Perspectives; Policy; Society and the Individual; Inside the School - helping you to make the connections between the different themes. 'Stop, Think and Do' boxes play a key part throughout the book, encouraging you to critically reflect on both the issues within the chapters and within Education as a whole.

Other features include:

• Introductions to each chapter to link the themes discussed in each section
• A summary of the key issues in each chapter for reflection
• Examples and case studies
• Links to key readings
