"It is undoubtedly an accolade to be among the select few leading international academics chosen for inclusion in this World Library of Educationalists series. It suggests, rightly, that Mary E.

It is a tribute to what it and all educational research should stand for." - Patricia Broadfoot, Graduate School of Education, University of Bristol, UK, in The Curriculum JournalMore details
