New Perspectives on Disaffection Pupils, Parents, Schools and Policy Makers

Traditionally, home circumstances or school regimes have been blamed for the worst excesses of pupil disaffection. The authors argue that this simplistic response to a complex problem needs to be re-examined. The book reports the findings of a research programme, based in Aberdeen, which explored the factors leading to pupil disaffection. The views and experiences of pupils themselves are central to the study. From this, the authors make practical recommendations for policy-makers at all levels.Sanders, David is the author of 'New Perspectives on Disaffection Pupils, Parents, Schools and Policy Makers' with ISBN 9780304328727 and ISBN 0304328723.
