A Generation of Radical Change is an exploration of the significance and impact of policy changes since the 1944 Education Act was introduced, seeking to provide cases of the hopes, fears, successes and failures in response to the national policies that followed. With contributions from experienced head teachers, Ofsted inspectors and other skilled academics, this is a narrative which gives a sense of change over their respective careers, drawing on their accounts and learning lessons from them before looking to the future and making a number of proposals for the way forward. This will be an invaluable guide for head teachers, principals and those with an interest in education policy and politics.
