{"product_id":"9783030507060","title":"Curriculum Change within Policy and Practice","description":"This book explores how curriculum reform is interconnected with policy, practice and society. Curriculum reform is increasingly associated with efforts to better the lives of citizens and provide a competitive edge to national prosperity. Educational policy and practice have been the subject of unprecedented convergence worldwide in the quest for so-called 21st century skills. This book offers a case study of curriculum reform within the Republic of Ireland, focusing on antecedents, processes and outcomes of government efforts to evoke fundamental curriculum realignment at lower secondary level. Set against a backdrop of fluctuating economic fortunes and concerns about academic standards and educational equity, this volume has wider relevance beyond Ireland for any system undertaking education reform at scale. ","brand":"Damian Murchan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47645675127102,"sku":"9783030507060","price":5415.97,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9783030507060.jpg?v=1707699862","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9783030507060","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
