Through the broad lens of political economy and centred around education reform policy, this essential book provides an in-depth analysis of the current state of American public education and the impact of Covid-19 on calls for change.
Drawing upon evidence from nations that routinely outperform America, this text proposes a more holistic approach to accountability and improvement within the American public education system. Chapters explore the issues faced by the current American public education system and proposes potential solutions, including:
- the role of government as provider of education services;
- liberty, democracy, and freedom and the ability of parents to control their child-s education;
- growing frustration with schools, public policies surrounding Covid and other potential crises; and
- how these concerns will impact the school choice movement.
