Abstract "Offering an anarchist perspective on State schooling in England and its centralisation from the late 1960s until the present day, this book proposes how the education of children and young people might be recaptured from the State as the country moves into a precarious future. With carefully considered chapters reflecting the common assumption that all is not well, this book paves the way to a fundamental reconsideration of schooling. Challenging the notions of full-time schooling and age-grading; anarchist schools and their relation to progressive schools are explored along with new modes of evaluation and accountability. A must-read book for anyone interested in the future of schooling."-- Provided by publisher.
