Finding Place and Keeping Pace: Exploring Meaningful and Equitable Learning in South African Schools

Finding Place and Keeping Pace focuses on getting access to and completing basic education in South Africa. It is based on research conducted for the Consortium on Research in Education Access, Transition and Equity (CREATE), an international study funded by the UK’s Department for International Development, led by Professor Keith Lewin of Sussex University. The book showcases a rich body of research dealing with educational access, inclusion, and exclusion, and provides a critical appraisal of how far South Africa has come in terms of achieving the Millennium Development and Education For All goals in terms of access and quality indicators.
