The character and role of the study of education in the UK have always been contested and often challenged. This book examines the contribution to the study of education that has been made by higher education institutions, journals, textbooks and societies. While key disciplines such as history, sociology, psychology and philosophy have been vital, education has been an unstable coalition of interests rather than a discipline in its own right.

We discuss the problems and opportunities facing the study of education today, and its prospects of adapting to changes in the decades ahead.
