Traveller, Nomadic and Migrant Education

This collection presents international case studies of the educational experiences and opportunities of people who travel for cultural reasons or to earn their living. The book examines the relationship between the two worlds of a mobile learner's home and school. Their mobility means that these people have to change schools regularly (monthly or even weekly). Each case study investigates whether, and how, two other kinds of change occur. One is change to the individual Traveller, nomad or migrant worker, who has to cross the boundary between the two worlds. The other is change to the institution of schooling, which might be encouraged and assisted to bring the two worlds of home and school more closely together. The case studies provide an up to date account of Traveller, nomadic and migrant education, and of educational change in Europe, Italy, England, Scotland, Ireland, Nigeria, India and Australia.Danaher, Patrick is the author of 'Traveller, Nomadic and Migrant Education' with ISBN 9780415963565 and ISBN 0415963567.
