Catherine Simon tells the fascinating story of the growth of Education Studies into a new and popular university subject. Reaching beyond the confines of the National Curriculum and teaching, Catherine explores the international dimensions as well as the philosophical and political ideas that Education embraces. She shows why it is an important subject, not just for teachers but for so many professional roles in a global future. If you are wondering whether or not to go to university, this book tells you what is unique and special about a degree course. It’s ‘the Basics’, and much more!Stephen Ward, Emeritus Professor of Education, Bath Spa University.
