{"product_id":"9781782770497","title":"Whatever Happened to Extended Schools?: The Story of an Ambitious Education Project","description":"At a time when the memory of Every Child Matters and Extended Schools is fading fast, when the policy agenda has returned with a vengeance to an exclusive concern with governance, choice, regulation, and performance, when the school seems more than ever to be viewed by government as primarily a business selling exam results – we should remember Extended Schools. And do more than remember: to reflect upon their experience, to assess the challenges they faced and what they achieved, and to consider how, someday, we might build on this experience to create education-in-its-broadest-sense and schools that are public spaces in the public domain and public resources – not only for children and parents, but for the whole community – genuinely public schools. This book, based on research undertaken in four schools and communities, has a vital role to play in such work of remembrance and reflection, giving a vivid insight into an ambitious education project and using that to build an imaginative portrayal of how an Extended School of the future might be.","brand":"Ucl Ioe Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47032390025456,"sku":"9781782770497","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781782770497_p0.jpg?v=1763723389","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781782770497","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
