This collection supports teachers and other educators to put key ideas about education to work in an accessible way, equipping them to realize the promise of their professional lives. Bridging school, further and higher education contexts, it draws on the distinctive contributions to research and scholarship that have been developed in Scottish education and beyond in recent times.The book is structured around two broad themes; the first focuses on key ideas and debates in education. These include exploring fundamental questions such as ‘what is education?’ and chapters which consider posthuman approaches to education, educational leadership, decolonial and anti-racist education, children’s rights and agency and education policy. The second theme considers teachers and ideas that are of relevance to teaching. This includes considering teachers’ professional standards and exploring what it means to be a more-than-human teacher and teacher agency. Ideas of teaching include place-responsive teaching, creativity, play and inquiry-based learning. Finally, themes of inclusion and transition are explored in the context of education. Each chapter closes with reflective questions co-created with practitioners, enabling readers to respond to the challenges, opportunities and recurrent themes that teaching presents.
