World Yearbook of Education 2016
This latest volume in the World Yearbook of Education series examines the global education industry in both OECD* countries as well as developing countries. It presents the work of scholars based in different parts of the world who have significantly contributed to this area of research. Focusing on the cross-over in public-private partnerships in education, World Yearbook of Education 2016 critically examines the actors and factors that have propelled the global rise of the education industry.
Split into three key sections, Part I explores how education agendas are shaped; Part II considers the private financing of education and the export of school improvements to professional consultancies; and Part III analyses new market niches, such as low-fee private schooling and for-profit education provisions.
The book draws upon case studies of many global organizations, including:
- The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
- Pearson Affordable Learning Fund
- Bridge International Academies
- Teach for All
- Omega Schools
Co-edited by three internationally renowned scholars, Antoni Verger, Christopher Lubienski, and Gita Steiner-Khamsi, World Yearbook of Education 2016 will be a valuable resource for researchers, graduates, and policymakers who are interested in the global education industry.
