International and Comparative Education offers detailed and wide-ranging illustrations of the ways in which comparison can illuminate our understanding of contemporary education systems by exploring issues in relation to specific educational sectors, from early-years and primary schooling, through to further, adult and higher education.
Key areas and debates examined include:
Alternative education provision
Early-years pedagogy and training
Spiritual, moral, social and cultural development in primary schooling
Work-related learning in secondary schools
The world of private tutoring
Economic austerity and further education
Apprenticeships and vocational education
Adult education and training

Teacher training and international rankings.
Drawing on these wide-ranging themes across a number of national contexts to provoke critical thinking and reflection, each chapter includes discussion points and further reading, providing a valuable resource for all Education Studies students.
